Nantucket Field Station

University of Massachusetts Boston, Satellite Campus

This project was a renovation to an existing laboratory located on Nantucket and owned by Boston University. The project reorganizes the existing space and enlarged the toilet room, for code compliance, while maintaining the existing footprint. Existing wood siding, windows, and framing had begun to rot in areas along the exterior of the building and required replacement.

The building is located within the Nantucket Historic District and required coordination with the local preservation society when choosing new materials for the exterior repairs, that would be both appropriate and durable.

University of Massachusetts Dartmouth

Dartmouth, MA

This project was part of a multi-phased renovation to the existing lab spaces in UMass’ Textile Building. This phase of the project included a pair of research labs (for both “wet” and “dry” experiments) and a portion of the surrounding support spaces, for all phases of the project.

During the design phase of the project careful consideration had to be given when planning the spaces in order to avoid redundant or unnecessary work across multiple phases.

Gymnasium Entrance Renovation

Massachusetts Maritime Academy

Original services began with a proposal to replace the soffit panels around the exterior of the gymnasium. The scope of the soffit replacement project was later expanded to include new glazing at the primary (East) entrance of the gymnasium. New storefront-type curtain walls were installed at the lobby entrance with three sets of accessible double doors on the ground floor.
