The MacKimmie Complex takes the existing
MacKimmie Tower , Link and Block and
revitilizes the core of the campus, by
repurposing the former tower and developing
a new academic space. The project also
reconciles the University’s Long Range
Developement Plan by revitilizing Swann Mall.
Given the University’s sustainble aspirations,
the project is a candidate for the CaGBC
Net Zero Carbon pilot. Beyond the deep
green inititatives, the DIALOG team utilized
computational design to define a complex
double skin facade that responds to the
climate and communicates the history of the
exisitng Tower structure.
My primary function is as Project Architect,
and Coordinating professional in charge of all
resources and phases.
