Today, we are incredibly proud to celebrate Jen for being recognized as one of Crain's Cleveland Business 2026 Notable Leaders in Architecture, Engineering & Construction. ✨

Over the last decade, Jen has helped grow +Detail from a solo entrepreneurial vision into a thriving design firm driven by human-centered impact.

One quality that makes Jen’s leadership truly remarkable is her ability to challenge conventional thinking. Her leadership continues to shape not only projects and teams, but the future of how thoughtful design can support people, organizations, and communities.

In May, our team paused to celebrate each other’s strengths and identify areas where we can improve our processes and strengthen communication. The beauty of our team is that we all have unique perspectives, and when we pull them all together and truly listen, magic happens!

It was enlightening to identify ways we can support one another and, in turn, support our work.

Thank you for sparking the conversation and creating a safe space for all our voices and ideas to be heard.

Our team is cookin’!

We recently visited Stir Studio Kitchen in Hudson, Ohio, for a fun night of cooking. Under the guidance of instructor and owner Charlie Denk, we made gnocchi bolognese completely from scratch. The jury is out over whose gnocchi was the best.

Charlie was an incredible instructor, walking us through each step and sharing techniques we’ll actually use at home. Even more interesting, we learned that Charlie originally started in engineering before taking a leap into entrepreneurship, a path that resonated with many of us in the room.

We’re grateful for our time together outside of the office. Getting to slow down, connect, and spend time as people, not just coworkers, is something we take to heart at +Detail.

Thank you to Charlie and the Stir Studio Kitchen team for a fantastic evening.

Nearing the Finish Line: Three Behavioral Health Facilities Designed to Expand Access to Crisis Care Across Ohio

Construction is nearing completion on three projects for Coleman Health Services.

+Detail is leading the architecture and interior design for:

Belmont Behavioral Health Urgent Care – St. Clairsville, Ohio
Portage Crisis Center – Ravenna, Ohio
Stark Behavioral Health Urgent Care – Canton, Ohio

Together, these projects represent a major shift in how behavioral health services are delivered. Instead of relying on emergency departments or correctional facilities, these centers provide dedicated spaces for assessment, stabilization, and treatment. They are designed specifically around safety, dignity, operational flow, and emotional well-being.

Close coordination with providers, staff, and community stakeholders ensure the buildings support both patient care and caregiver workflows.

These projects represent years of planning, collaboration, and a shared commitment to improving behavioral health access across Ohio.

We’re looking forward to sharing more as these facilities prepare to open later this year!

Project Partners:
Coleman Health Services
Ohio Department of Behavioral Health
Mental Health & Recovery Board of Portage County
Mental Health and Recovery Board Belmont Harrison and Monroe Counties
Stark Mental Health and Addiction Recovery
Turner Construction Company
Welty Building Construction
Rhulin Construction

Better environments come from curious people.

At +Detail, we believe design doesn’t only happen in the office. It happens in galleries, workshops, conversations, and communities. We encourage our team to study craft, support local makers, and stay connected to the creative ecosystems that surround us.

This month, Dylan Rundle, Project Designer, shares his perspective after visiting The Calculated Plane exhibition at Context Fine Art.

"Buildings, music, food, and films will surely still exist without architects, composers, chefs, and directors. But these mediums are better because of these vocations. Devotion to craft and the benefits brought to society are what make these professionals invaluable. These people organize local talent, resources, and funds to create something greater than the sum of its parts.

An architect strongly rooted in a local ecosystem of artisans will make work that truly benefits their community and contributes to their own self-realization. Architects ought to be in search of craftspeople like the way a composer searches for people to play their music.

The +Detail team recently visited Context Fine Art to see The Calculated Plane as well as other pieces from the gallery’s collection. We look forward to visiting more local gallery shows in the future to keep our eyes sharp and continue expanding our network of local talent."

We’re excited to introduce a new monthly series, “View from Our Team,” where our team shares what’s inspiring them outside the office, from art and travel to volunteering and community involvement, and how those experiences shape the way we think about design.

Because better design comes from people who stay curious.

What if the design of a space could help a child regulate their emotions, feel safe, and begin to heal?

The first phase of the Child & Adolescent Medical Psychiatric Unit at University Hospitals Horvitz Tower is now complete. With no detail left behind, the Medical Behavioral Unit is redefining what pediatric behavioral health environments can feel like.

Upon completion, the 21,600 SF Child & Adolescent Psychiatric Unit (CAPU) and Medical Behavioral Unit will support not only clinical care, but dignity, emotional regulation, and connection.

+Detail led the interior design and environmental graphics, in collaboration with Turner Construction Company, Perspectus Architecture (Architect), IMEG (MEP), and Barber & Hoffman, Inc. (Structural).

Together, the team reimagined behavioral health social spaces as restorative landscapes that promote movement, calm, and healing. Curved enclosures with deep purple ribbons weave through the design and wrap patients in protective forms. This soothes the nervous system while enabling connection between peers and caregivers. Strategically placed openings cultivate a sense of autonomy and belonging, ensuring spaces feel welcoming rather than overwhelming.

The goal was simple but powerful:

Create a space where children and adolescents feel safe, respected, and supported in their healing journey.

Projects like this remind us that design plays a real role in behavioral health outcomes.

At +Detail, we believe healthcare environments should do more than function well.

They should support people at their most vulnerable moments.

We look forward to the completion of Phase II and the positive impact it will have on those it serves.

Welcome to +Detail, Dylan Rundle ✨

We’re excited to welcome Dylan Rundle to the +Detail team as a Project Designer.

Dylan is a designer and interdisciplinary artist originally from the Pittsburgh area. In 2022, he earned his bachelor’s degree in architecture and a minor in studio art from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Rundle has exhibited in solo and group shows regionally, and his work has been published by Dezeen , AD, and Cleveland’s Canvas Magazine.

Prior to +Detail, he worked at a variety of design practices, applying specialization in parametric design technologies and visualization for both local and international projects.

At its best, Rundle’s artistic and design work is the same practice; they supplement one another. He believes in the unification of all artistic disciplines and craftspeople as a means of building collective power for everyone. He embraces the artistic and empathetic nature of architectural practice as a vehicle for putting goodness into his community. While working, Dylan prioritizes being observant, methodical, and pursuing unorthodox solutions.

Dylan and his wife, Sarah, love being part of the region’s thriving, diverse artistic community. From live music and performances to gallery shows, there’s always something compelling to witness in Cleveland, and they are proud to call it home. Dylan enjoys bizzare music and films, dancing to his favorite local vinyl DJs, and being the father of his houseplants.

Welcome to the team, Dylan. We are thrilled to have your energy and talent in the office. 👋

Lerner Tower | After → Before

At University Hospitals' main campus medical center, +Detail completed the first phase of a multi-floor Common Area Refresh at Lerner Tower, beginning with the 4th Floor.

The project replaced aging carpet, insufficient lighting, and constrained staff hubs without disrupting operations or patient rooms. Clean durable finishes, clear signage, and reimagined nurse stations are designed to support focus, efficiency, and well-being.

Guided by University Hospitals’ mission: To Heal. To Teach. To Discover. The work demonstrates the impact of thoughtfully designed spaces, elevating the daily experiences of patients, staff, and visitors.

This is the first of several floors planned for renovation, utilizing University Hospitals’ design standards through Follio®. Consistent design elements from floor to floor enhance the continuum of care, instilling confidence along the patient's journey. The project’s success highlights the efficiency of well-developed standards from project inception to completion and beyond.

A Milestone Worth Celebrating

We’re proud to celebrate Dominic LiPuma, RA, for earning his Registered Architect license. Licensure represents years of discipline, perseverance, and responsibility. It goes beyond a credential; it reflects a strong commitment to protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public while practicing architecture with care.

For Dominic, this milestone marks the culmination of nearly 15 years of education, experience, and hard work that began at Syracuse University.

As Dominic shared:
“This milestone symbolizes the peak of the challenging and fulfilling work, experiences, and relationships I formed along the way. I’m excited to step into this next chapter with the professional title of Architect.”

At +Detail, we believe investing in our people strengthens the quality of our work, across varying project typologies, where design directly influences human experience.

Congratulations, Dominic. We’re proud of the architect you’ve become and excited for what’s ahead.
