Happy Holidays!

We bring you “Gontram Architecture’s Office.” Fans of the “The Office” (the NBC sitcom series featuring the employees of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company) will understand some of nuance behind our efforts. Others may get it, or they will just find it stupid humor. Either way, we enjoyed putting it together and hope you find it as silly as we did while filming it!

This is the 3rd episode!

Where it all began:  2009 “How to Construct a Snowman”:

A little History:  For over 25 years, we’ve been celebrating the holiday season in many different ways. We started out sending Holiday cards to many clients and friends. The cards were always custom made featuring one of our recent projects placed in a holiday scene. But, we started to view this as wasteful, and not very entertaining. So, we moved from cards to producing our own holiday short video satire about the issues of the day in the construction industry (and in other industries as well, including politics). in 2009, “How to Construct a Snowman” was born! Dave Schulz (Schulz Ironworks) volunteered his time every year to be the undeniable voice of the star of the series, Ned Ledbetter. Ned is a power-hungry bureaucrat (Zoning Inspector) that takes us through the journey of (properly) building a snowman in a code-compliant manner. Sadly, Dave passed away in December, 2020, shortly after the release of the 12th episode. In honor of Dave, we decided to retire the series and go a different way for 2021.
