A highly adaptable space capable of supporting a board range of daily academic activities as well as rentals and space events.🌟
UAPTC: Grand Hall
LaHarpe's Office Furniture Dealer Designer: Jennifer Chwalinski, ASID, NCIDQ
Grand Hall won GOLD in the Dealer Designer Large (over 5000 square feet) Category at the ASID South Central Chapter Awards Gala. 🥇
Jennifer designed this space to respond directly to the clients need for a thoughtful balance between assembly, banquet, and learning environments, creating a highly adaptable space. The hall functions as a multipurpose environment, where spatial flexibility and infrastructure readiness all effortless transitions between focused classroom instruction, staff training, large assemblies, and formal banquets.
To support this versatility, the access floor system and furniture prioritized ease of reconfiguration. The integrated convenience power is distributed strategically across the floor plate, ensuring seamless connectivity for laptops, prestation equipment, catering needs, and event technology regardless of layout. The furniture is modular, allowing the facilities team to quickly shift between classroom, lecture, and banquet arrangements without compromising comfort or circulation.
