return to Tenant Improvements, Renovations, & New Construction

Antioch University
Renovations to an existing 45,000 square foot, two-story building to provide a new campus facility for Antioch University. The design included symposium rooms, classrooms, program spaces, a small cafe, and administrative offices. We approached the project from two directions; one path was to set up a process for input from all the users of the facility to clearly define the program, the other was to carefully review the existing building construction to optimize the resources available for the renovations. We were able to increase the number of faculty offices by 15% (from the original programming effort), yet still keep the project within budget. The project was completed on time and within the established $2,100,000 construction budget. Our work at Antioch University also provides a clear example of our commitment to the development of sustainable buildings, namely by providing waste reduction and recycling through materials selection, architectural design and construction site operations. Recent work at Antioch included an additional 4,000 square feet of renovations.
