Interior Design Goals

Interiors make a BIG difference

• Impactful, attractive, and vibrant environment
• Thoughtful selections for light, color, and texture
• Flexible, adaptive, moveable furniture
• Sustainable and quality materials, finishes and fixtures
• Primary building focal points, Gallery spaces and the CSC

LES - Center for Student Creativity

As a building focal point, the CSC hinges from the main

• entrance. The over-scaled single-slope roof slab and

large clerestory faces a primary thoroughfare, announcing the school’s presence and inviting residents in to make the most of this valuable community asset.

“Gallery” spaces define circulation

The building circulation is clear, and intuitive, embracing the feel of an open art gallery, with high ceilings, prominent display areas and break-out space with views to the courtyard where students and community can gather to exhibit works and smaller exhibitions.

Exterior Design Goals

Innovated - Reflect Tradition

• Traditional materials with contemporary detailing
• Create a distinctive presence
• Neighborhood regional context
• Sustainable and high-performing materials
