Wellesley College is welcoming its students back this fall semester with the opening of its new Science Complex. We helped @wellesleycollege achieve one of the largest and most ambitious building projects in its modern history: transforming an outdated science center into an inviting, integrated, sustainable, and flexible village for teaching and learning. With new spaces featuring state-of-the-art learning and research facilities, a restoration of the surrounding landscape, and a strategy to conserve and renovate the most distinctive elements of the existing center, the new Science Complex maintains Wellesley’s position at the forefront in #STEM education for women. “We reimagined the science center as a village for teaching, learning, and research,” said SOM Design Partner Colin Koop. “The project is a careful mix of removal, renovation, and addition that will give students and faculty a more inviting and engaging experience.” Read more about the complex—link in bio. 📸 @daveburk #architecture #adaptivereuse #interiordesign #science #highereducation #design #wellesleycollege
