The City of Panama City Beach desired a new City Hall as part of a master-planned municipal complex, to address the growing demands of its expanding population. The building’s design captures the essence of a Florida beach town, incorporating elements of coastal vernacular architecture while ensuring that the space remains highly functional and practical for modern use.
The City Hall’s interior architecture is thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of a contemporary municipal facility. It provides a welcoming environment for public services, while maintaining the security and efficiency required for local government operations. By balancing charm and functionality, the new City Hall aims to serve the community while enhancing its connection to the area’s coastal identity.
