How do we transform a very utilitarian, architectural eyesore into a vibrant part of campus that attracts students and faculty?
By re-envisioning the exterior facade of this facility with an architectural style that complements the rest of campus and creating student-centered learning environments, collaboration areas and staff-focused office suites.
“The renovation of Crispin Hall inspires achievement and empowers students to make a difference in the world daily. The design supports collaborative, flexible, technology-rich classroom learning that seamlessly flows into labs for hands-on applications.”
BLDD served as Architect of Record for the University of Illinois' first newly constructed residence hall in approximately 30 years.
The first floor of Hovey Hall, an existing administrative building on the campus of Illinois State University, was remodeled to serve as the new home of the Financial Aid Department.
The project consists of a three story, approximately 48,000 s.f., building located on the corner of University and East Streets in Bloomington, Illinois and will house a highly-flexible multi-purpose space that allows for the design thinking process and creation to occur.
