Richland School District Two’s new Middle School is located in the rapidly growing Blythe­wood area and will initially accommodate 1050 students. The 17 acre site includes play fields and a planned area for a future center magnet program. The building is oriented north/south on the site to maximize daylighting in all the major learning spaces and in corridor and public spaces. The design features many sustainable principles – in addition to daylighting, energy efficient mechanical systems, local & recycled materials, and indigenous landscape are featured.

USC Softball Stadium Construction

The new Softball Stadium for the University of South Carolina is the next venue to be developed in the Athletic Village. In the design for the new facility, visitors enter through a plaza located along the main pedestrian walkway in the Athletic Village and progress across a bridge under the raised press box to the main concourse level. The top loaded stadium seats approximately 1400 and provides a variety of seating options, ranging from enclosed rooms to covered areas to seated dining zones– all to enhance the fan experience. The raised press box and entry stairs are unified by a large cantilevering roof canopy shading fans below.
