This project renovating two buildings from the early 1900s required significant interior and exterior renovations to provide space for faculty and staff offices, conference/meeting rooms, classrooms, computer labs, data storage, and support areas. As both buildings have historical significance, the original characteristics of the building were retained. The work on Oxley Hall included new framing for mechanical work and reframing deteriorated roof areas.

The project consisted of demolishing the existing Agricultural Engineering Building and designing and constructing a 44,0000 SF replacement facility on the site. As a part of the demolition project, the existing utilities in the tunnel were disconnected and capped, and hazardous materials abated to satisfy LEED requirements. The replacement facility is aligned with the principles of the Frame Work Plan for the Regional Campuses. It includes labs for specialized research, faculty offices, lab and office support spaces, surface parking, and a connection to the existing utility tunnel system. The scope included site planning to strengthen pedestrian and vehicular relationships within the campus. Design services included interior finishes and equipment.

This project was the improvement, partial replacement, and expansion of the existing patio, which wraps the Longaberger Alumni House's North, West, and South sides. The project doubled the area of the existing patio along the South side and provided a covered outdoor space. The existing architecture was used to inform the design of the covering for the patio that will be used for a variety of outdoor events. The landscaping is also redone around the new patio to enhance the area.
