This project consisted of a complete renovation of the entire ground floor of the Marston Science Library. The reference area and map library was removed to create more space for a student study area and private study rooms. Cutting edge technology includes the MADE@UF Lab for creation of mobile apps and games, 3D scanning, 3D printing, and a multi-touch visualization wall.

"We hope this environment will nurture their curiosity and dreams."

Chief Information Officer

Built as “part of the University’s preeminence initiative,” this room will “alleviate a shortage of study space on campus,” according to Provost Joseph Glover.

To support this goal, we installed all new interior partitions, ceilings, flooring, air handler units, and lighting with necessary MEPF modifications.
