Vision 3 Architects to complete 17,000 s/f St. Andrew's School
According to Vision 3 Architects, the 40-bed student housing 17,400 s/f facility is a fast track, renovation and expansion project that enables St. Andrew's School to meet their increased demand for modern student housing. The project broke ground during April, with occupancy scheduled for the start of the fall semester 2014. The existing 9,600 s/f building renovation includes new interior finishes, new restrooms, new sleeping rooms, common student areas, a new two-bedroom faculty apartment and new mechanical, electrical and fire protection systems.
The 7,800 s/f two-story building addition, includes two new faculty apartments, student sleeping rooms, bathrooms and a student lounge. The new student dormitory will improve and expand student housing on campus, while contributing to a new campus image that complements the historic architecture and surrounding rural woodlands of the campus. The architecture is simple, appealing, and incorporates the use of quality, traditional materials throughout. Peregrine Group, LLC is the owners representative with construction management by H.V.
