Science Lecture Building

Atlanta Metropolitan State College | Atlanta, Georgia

Higher Purpose

This 1970s-era building, originally designed for a Junior High School Program was transformed into a state-of-the-art, 21st-century learning center that supports the college’s academic plan and extends the life of the building for another 20-30 years. Inefficient classrooms with sloping floors were replaced with flat floor classrooms accommodating the college’s standard desk furniture and layouts. A variety of classroom sizes were provided from a sixty seat, tiered lecture halls to twelve student seminar rooms. All finishes were upgraded to provide spaces with a more collegiate atmosphere for a new generation of students. The project included a significant addition that accomplished the college’s goal to make the building more visible and prominent from the surrounding community.
