Science Building Addition and Renovation
Eastern New Mexico University, Portales
2010
VHGA renovated the 1940's era, 30,000 square foot, Science Building and designed a 10,000 square foot laboratory addition. The new addition faces the campus and creates a connection to the campus circulation flow. The brick used on the original structure was used for the addition, melding the old and the new into a cohesive building design. The design of the addition complements the original structure and creates a new, strong, identity for the science building going into the future.
The revitalized, undergraduate science classroom and laboratory building was designed to encourage interdisciplinary interactions, collaborative teaching, and flexibility of uses. The new facility consists of a variety of teaching and research caliber classrooms, labs, support facilities, storage areas, and offices. The Science Building has three "smart" classrooms with state-of-the-art A/V systems and wireless internet connections. Large lecture hall classrooms and smaller seminar rooms are interspersed within the classroom mix and autoclave equipment. Controlled natural light is brought into the building. Flexible teaching spaces meet current needs while accommodating future change.
