Designed two student residence halls, totaling 120,000-sf with 400 beds that also include instructional space, a performance space, lounges, a kitchen, and a dining facility. The concrete structure, much of which is exposed and thus elemental to the design of the space, provides thermal mass to reduce energy costs and is intended to allow for possible future conversion to alternate use. The project is scheduled for occupancy in 2006, with a direct construction cost of $27 million. While with another firm, Chris Thompson served as Principal-in-Charge.
