SōL Harris/Day is developing a fresh look for Mount Union's current library complex that will include a new Cafe with extended hours, updated lounge and tech zone, and new conference and study rooms for students and staff alike.
The focus of the project is based on the human element - more specifically student needs. To achieve this, the design team will work to provide:
Flexible furniture that caters to the tech-savvy Millennial generation
Lounge with Media-scape center for high-tech learning
Rich textural finishes for enhanced aesthetics
Balance between existing building & new renovation
Student workflow between new Cafe & Learning Commons
Teaming with Hammond Construction Co. to expedite construction, the estimated completion is set for mid-late summer of 2014 in preparation for fall classes.
