2023, AIA Fort Wayne – Citation Award: Preservation/Adaptive Reuse/RenovationHuntington HUB was originally built with the intent of being a space for students to do their homework and collaborate. As time progressed, the University began to add offices, a student bookstore, classrooms, and other rooms to the building.
The university wanted to redirect their attention to the students.
Design Collaborative created a plan that included an updated layout of the building to make this happen. The original building did not have a space dedicated to deliveries, which posed difficulties for students. Design Collaborative created a loading dock on the side of the Union Building to avoid students coming in contact with delivery trucks. This project was successfully completed without disrupting students on campus during construction.
