standout: When the Dallas-based architects, partners in work and life, founded their firm in 2017, they chose a name representative of their values and how they understood their role: as agents acting on behalf of both their clients and the surrounding community. The pair’s latest endeavor, converting a 1980s mall into 180,000 square feet of creative office space plus amenities, resonated personally, as the Barneses grew up in the suburbs. In the cross-shaped concourse, now a communal hub, existing skylights and clerestories inspired an indoor-outdoor concept with exposed glulam beams, an A-frame library clad in recycled teak, and a glass-enclosed lunch pod. “Our goal,” the duo says, “was for the tenant suites to feel surrounded on all sides by daylight.” agentarchitecture.co
