The Institute for Astronomy was seeking architectural design services to re-envision their existing building on Woodlawn Drive as a 21st-century workplace: one that facilitates collaboration, informal gathering, flexibility over time, and highest and best use of the existing spaces for innovation and learning. This design exploration focused on re-envisioning underutilized spaces using minimal and budget-conscious design moves.
