Design Strategies and Innovative Concepts
Collocate like departments and programs and optimize the existing science building. Analysis of existing space data current state to uncover inefficiencies. Create a new addition to optimize departments dispersed across campus. Design strategy seeks to optimize the existing science center through first phase renovations.
