Eastern Michigan University Strong Hall Renovation and Addition
Eastern Michigan University¡¯s Strong Hall renovation and expansion project was a much-needed modernization of the third most-trafficked academic building on the campus. Built in 1957, Strong Hall lacked the 21st-century accommodations today¡¯s students are accustomed to: social space, flexible learning environments, natural lighting and modern infrastructure. These lacking attributes became resounding objectives in planning and visioning for the building¡¯s transformation.
Strong Hall¡¯s renovation completes the third and final phase of a broad effort to educate students in science-related disciplines. One major goal in its renovation was creating a better connection to the adjacent Mark Jefferson Science Building both visually and programmatically. For the interior, this involved expanding a narrow, dark stairway¡ªthe sole connection between the two buildings¡ªmaking it grander, brighter, and better able to foster interaction.
Corridors and other nonprogrammed spaces were reimagined and now serve as much-needed social space to bring students together and develop a sense of community.?
