HUCKABEE COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE The journey through college is one that consists of many decisions, changes, and growth of each individual. The HCOA has guided thousands of students through this journey, and our design intends to enhance the built environment to better support this experience. Creating a building that moves and adapts to the needs of its users seamlessly, is one of our main goals. By considering the effects of each design decision, the site will transform into a space that provides an inspirational learning environment for the future, while still honoring the path of the HCOA.

PROBLEM STATEMENT The Huckabee College of Architecture renovation aims to revitalize the existing facility while enhancing its functionality and overall appeal for both faculty and students. The primary objectives of this renovation project include integrating modern materials and technology, adding new classrooms, offices, restrooms, a lecture hall, shower/locker rooms, and student collaboration spaces. Our goal is to create an inviting, open, and flexible learning environment that fosters socialization, teamwork, and student engagement while prioritizing safety and security. The design of the renovated college centers on promoting the well-being of its occupants' evolving needs. To achieve this, the renovation will focus on incorporating elements that support physical and mental health, such as natural lighting, ergonomic furnishings, and restorative environments. The additions will result in a significant expansion of 43,562 square feet to accommodate the growing program and student body. We aim to create a memorable experience for all users, ensuring that they can effortlessly locate their destinations while enjoying the aesthetic appeal of the building.
