The team from Turner Construction Company’s Vancouver office in Canada, alongside Leckie Studio Architecture + Design Inc. and UBC Properties Trust, broke ground for the future University of British Columbia Arts Student Centre — a standalone three-story facility intended to improve the academic, social, personal and professional lives of the University’s Arts students.
The multipurpose facility will provide much-needed amenities to support the learning, social, collaboration and innovation space needs of a diverse faculty of arts student population. The 10,000-square-foot Centre will include a range of targeted activity spaces and amenities to support creative engagement, including media production, video conferencing and graphics production spaces, as well as a student-run art gallery.
The building’s exterior will have a striking, contemporary design, highlighted by a system of window fins that provide both architectural character and solar shading.
