Academy of Country Music

The new headquarters for The Academy of Country Music (ACM) in Nashville, seamlessly blends their grit and rugged West Coast roots with today’s country music Nashville persona, resulting in an authentic design, rich with detailing layered with country music history.

Founded in 1964 in Los Angeles, the ACM was a representation of the unconventional spirit of artists like Merle Haggard and Buck Owens. Embracing their rebellious attitude, the new 8,400 square-foot headquarters in Nashville integrates their renegade ethos into the ACM’s new home. Located in Nashville’s Wedgewood Houston neighborhood, the building’s exposed timber construction and polished concrete floors provided a perfect backdrop for the ACM’s vision.
