Fantail Addition

Massachusetts Maritime Academy

On a campus with firm discipline and little privacy, the Fantail aims to provide a comfortable environment for socializing. In keeping with the tugboats and ships these students operate, precast panels bend in an arc similar to a bridge deck and look towards the spectacular Cape Cod Canal Approach. A monitor sits atop and floods the central space with light. Exterior materials are used in keeping with the context of the campus: brick, concrete and copper. On the interior high mounted pipe raised wood floor doubles as a private lounge area and stage, exposed ceilings incorporate theatrical lighting over a dance floor and custom booths allow informal gatherings.

Due to space limitations and environmental and security concerns, the existing space dedicated to the Nickerson Collection was no longer adequate to meet the needs of this expanding collection. New climate controlled space within existing library including display area, classroom and reading room and archive room.

Feasibility Study:
Four schemes were developed with varying program and sizes.

Campus Center Entrance Renovation

Bridgewater State University

Originally designed prior to the enactment of the ADA, one of the prime goals of the project was to provide easy and direct handicapped access to both venues. Additional goals of the project included consideration of program revisions to better respond to current uses and improve general curb appeal.

The revisions to the Campus Center Main Entrance include an open and flexible plan that will serve as a link between East and West Campuses with various digital media upgrades.
