Project Challenges and Outcomes
Challenges
The University wanted a new, high-tech space that could be used by the University's Center for Emerging and Innovative Media for cutting edge broadcasting. At the same time, they wanted to make the space an educational showcase space, that would be visible to all students passing by at the heart of the campus. The new studio allows for students to get a peek into the world of broadcasting without even stepping inside the studio.
Outcomes
DLA+ worked with the University and our design partners to design a sleek, state-of-the-art, studio that serves as both an integral piece of the University’s Student Media platforms and an exceptional academic tool for the Center for Emerging and Innovative Media. DLA+ worked diligently to integrate the University design and graphic standards into this modern multimedia venue. DLA+ provided Conceptual Design, Construction Documentation, and Construction Administration services to the University to complete this new amenity at the hub of the Duquesne campus.
