FIRST PALMETTO BANK - DEVINE ST

FIRST PALMETTO BANK · COLUMBIA, SC · COMMERCIAL · COMPLETED

A professional banking environment on one of Columbia's most prominent commercial corridors. Jeff Lewis AIA designed a space that reflects the trust and stability First Palmetto Bank represents to its customers — clean, confident, and built to serve.

Located on Devine Street in the heart of Columbia, the First Palmetto Bank project required a design that balanced the operational demands of a full-service banking environment with the professional image the institution projects to its community. Jeff Lewis AIA delivered a space that feels welcoming and trustworthy — exactly what a neighborhood bank should be. With 14 professional photographs documenting the completed project, this commission stands as one of the firm's best-documented commercial works.
