Building

KPNARCHITECTS, llc 2017 - Present

Brief Description of Project

Size : 199,670sf

Design Start : 2020

Constructions Start : 2022( est.)

Setting : Higher Education

The new CAH Building will be an integral part of the Bowie State experience, collecting and connecting students across various fields of study into a facility designed to inspire collaboration and student success. The new building will be the stage upon which students are empowered to speak and destined to soar, the primary vision for the project.

The building’s massing informs the approach to the facade design and materiality, responding to specific program needs, view opportunities, environmental orientation, and shaping a series of significant new campus spaces. The highly visual nature of the programs contained within the building are manifested in the design concept of “procession”. This concept guides the building siting, shape, placement, and materials.

Responsibility

Work closely with the team to identify FF&E needs and assist in developing detailed specifications for each FF&E item, including dimensions, materials, finishes, and other features. Assist the team in Revit modeling and produce construction drawings, including exterior wall sections, roof plans, and interior elevations.
