star store


PROJECT INFORMATION : Star Store 715 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA 02740

Each academic floor of this building was designed very similarly. Each major was given their own seprate floor with studios, classrooms, and offices lining the exterior and shared amenities in the core of the design. As well as computer labs in the back of the building next to the stair case. This was done so that wayfinding will be easy on each of the floors and from any point of entry. Collaboration and touch down spaces were also incorporated to have a place to sit and relax or socialize. PROCESS AND CONCEPT IMAGES:
