MTC Lexington Hall Addition

Midlands Technical College

Completion Date
January 2010

Project Budget
$2.2 Million

This 10,000 SF addition to a 1970's era classroom building is a sensitive example of contextual and efficient design. The addition for the Health Science and Science Programs provides new teaching labs, lab prep areas, health science classrooms, and administrative space with the latest in educational technologies. The building also provides a large flexible computer classroom for Nursing courses and testing. Seeking opportunities to enhance the campus with student centered spaces, the addition creates exterior courtyards that provide needed spaces for student interaction. The addition's exterior balances a sensitivity to the existing classroom context in terms of proportion, materiality, and general character with a more contemporary approach to fenestration, daylighting, and special detailing.

Showcase Project

SCVRD Lyman Center

As the first new Center to be built for the South Carolina Vocational Rehabilitation Department in over twenty years, the Lyman Center reflects the current mission and philosophy of the Department, providing counseling, rehabilitation, and work production services. The new 35,000sf structure, to be constructed in two phases, is subdivided into three major program components: an area office, a 10,000sf production/training floor, and a special services unit for occupational and physical therapy. Designed for an organization that values its relationships within the business community, the facility appeals to corporate and technological aesthetics while also blending with its organic, wooded site on the Middle Tyger River.

Middle School Seven Construction

Richland School District Two’s new Middle School is located in the rapidly growing Blythewood area and will initially accommodate 1050 students. The 40 acre site includes play fields and a planned area for a future center magnet program. The building was oriented north/south on the site to maximize daylighting in all the major learning spaces and in corridor and public spaces.

OC Tech rolls out new Transportation Center

Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College officially opened the doors of the Anne S. Crook Transportation and Logistics Center on Monday with pledges that it will provide workers with the skills they need and boost the region's economy. U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican who helped get $1.5 million in federal funds for the building, said "The building that I'm talking about today, named after a wonderful person, is going to allow this part of South Carolina to offer the educational skills to people who live in our area to get some of the best jobs in the 21st century."
