Excellence in Architecture

This three-story facility is a working model of how industry works, complete with a functioning 10-ton underslung crane that doubles as a major design feature. It’s an excellent example of how seamlessly building design, building purpose, and structural elements can combine to create an elevated experience for the students while providing them a prime example of attention to detail.
