This former Irwin Union Bank branch in Hope, Indiana, has been repurposed as a pharmacy. Its rectangular plan is defined by twelve pyramidal roofs, supported by slender steel columns and clerestory glazing that creates a floating roof effect. The entry features a pyramidal canopy, a glass vestibule, and a dramatic peaked interior volume, while red brick detailing reinforces the simple, modernist design.
