DESCRIPTION:
DBA provided design and documentation for the renovation of the executive conference room at the Loeb Art Center. The expansion of the art curriculum at Vassar required the transformation of an outdated and unused conference room into a state-of-the-art classroom environment. The space required the display of priceless art and artifacts for the study of art history and pedagogy. Archive storage, ambient and natural daylighting, and environmental conditioning were all critical to the programming and design of the space.
