Davis Wince, Ltd. provided full architectural services for the renovation of Read Hall. The layout of the residence hall was restructured to create 68 resident rooms, including multiple suites and apartment-style residences. The mechanical systems in each room were upgraded to include individual fan coils, allowing residents to control individual room temperatures. Numerous private restrooms were added to offer greater privacy and decrease the main restroom traffic.
Renovations to the 31,500 sf residence hall included an addition off of the first floor main lobby to incorporate previously unused spaces as meeting areas during the day, and a study area during evening hours. The newly created space may also serve as a classroom or seminar hall as needed.
