Whitworth University Visual Arts Building

This 20,000 sf building was designed to replace an outdated existing facility, addressing the needs of art majors as well as the fine arts requirements for other degrees. The facility provides studios on two levels with full height exterior glass to capitalizing on abundant north light, organized along a multilevel circulation corridor that enhances staff and student interaction. An exhibit gallery for professional work anchors the building and is the focus of the public spaces.
