The KCU Academic Center renovation transformed an under-utilized, 1,500-seat auditorium into a state-of-the-art learning facility and hub for student activity. The design team developed an innovative concept of stacking two lecture halls within the footprint of the existing auditorium. This resourceful solution saved nearly a third of what it might otherwise cost to build a new lecture facility. Back-of-house auditorium spaces were converted into flexible student break-out and study rooms and the entry lobby was transformed into an informal study/gathering space with playful lounge furniture. Two-way distance learning capabilities are incorporated into throughout the facility.
