MASSBAY HEALTH SCIENCES BUILDING

This new 70,000 GSF Health Science building will become a new satellite campus for MassBay Community College in Framingham, MA. The net zero building consists of two bars of program spaces with single corridors facing the center of the building and central cores at every level. Two entrances, one facing the forecourt from the parking lot and one facing the corner of Mt. Wayte Avenue and Franklin Street, connect to a lobby between the two bars of the building. The design seeks to carve additional informal student spaces out of circulation areas of the building to maximize student engagement and community-building.The building’s program includes specialized labs including Nursing, EMT, Phlebotomy, Radiology, Sonography, and others. Complementing these experiential learning spaces are general education classrooms, a library, administrative spaces, and Student Support spaces such as a lounge, group study rooms, and the Enrollment and Academic Achievement Center.
