Historic chapel’s interior structure makes way for soaring performance space.

University says its first hybrid mass timber and low-carbon concrete conference center is a bold commitment to sustainability.

Collaboration is at the heart of this new 323,000-sq-ft facility, which brings together scientists, engineers and physicians from multiple disciplines to solve critical global health problems.

With a capacity of 1.4 million gallons, the $10.3-million tank produces chilled water during off-peak nighttime hours, significantly reducing the university’s energy costs.

Unable to expand outward, the team had to maximize every square inch of the 50-year-old, 185,000-sq-ft building’s interior space to accommodate a dense and highly technical program, including more than 600 pieces of lab equipment.

The 50,000-sq-ft facility features a 550-seat auditorium, a 100-seat black box theater, rehearsal and instructional spaces, flexible computer science classrooms and the school’s first art gallery.

Transforming the 44,000-sq-ft stone chapel built in 1910 into a modern, high-performing concert hall while also adding a new 20,000-sq-ft subterranean arts wing required deep collaboration and trust among the team to navigate complex structural, acoustic and sequencing issues.

The largest academic project in Colby College history and the new home for its music, cinema studies and performance, theater and dance departments, this $95-million, 74,000-sq-ft building features flexible, multipurpose performance areas.

Transforming a three-building complex that houses and supports campus programming and initiatives related to access, equity and inclusion, the project includes a mass timber hybrid addition and comprehensive renovations to an adjacent 19th-century building that now has all new electric systems.

The project’s $9-million first phase deployed thermal networking to reduce energy demand and to eliminate carbon emissions that could trigger Local Law 97 penalties in 2030.
