Frederick Mutual Insurance Company
Frederick, Maryland
Construction Cost: $1,033,733
Completion Date: March 1994


For their new building, the Board of Directors of the Frederick Mutual Insurance Company envisioned a conservative Georgian style. We designed an exterior consisting of red sand molded brick, brick quoins at the corners, decorative dental molding and fascia, raised panel shutters, and asphalt shingles that appear to be slate. Two pairs of painted wood Doric columns support the arched porch roof structure with a grand curved staircase.

The interior exhibits wide custom wood trim and six panel doors, along with additional wood trim in the president's office as well as the entrance. The boardroom features an American black walnut chair rail, crown, trim, casework, doors, and fireplace mantel. In general office areas, we installed standard acoustical ceilings and vinyl base with an open office area. We incorporated safety elements such as a sprinkler system and emergency generator without compromising the Georgian style.

Proffitt and Associates is also providing services for an addition to the existing building to increase core office space.
