This four-building Saieh Hall complex establishes a new academic precinct for interdisciplinary economics research, teaching, conferences, and global outreach on the University of Chicago’s campus in the Hyde Park-Kenwood Historical District.

The Marist College campus draws on Hudson River traditions of well-crafted stone buildings and dramatic vistas. This distinguished liberal arts college has commissioned a new center for its School of Management and School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, both supporting robust programs that enroll more than 500 students.

Our adaptive reuse and expansion of a1932 campus landmark building to become Yale’s Humanities Quadrangle, centralizes fifteen academic departments in one location to create greater opportunities for inter-departmental learning and research.

Olin Library, constructed in 1962, is a campus crossroads where the University community connects daily through study, research, collaboration, and chance encounter. Our Master Plan for the 183,000 square-foot Library considered all spaces as well as new collaborative settings in the building needed by other academic departments throughout the campus.

ABA/Annum’s renovation of and addition to Building 2 is the first major renewal and expansion within MIT’s 1.1M-square-foot Beaux-Arts “Main Group” building complex, completed in 1916. Fronting the Charles River with views of the Boston skyline, the 93,000-square-foot Simons Building houses the Department of Mathematics. Guiding ABA/Annum’s design was the goal of balancing heritage and preservation with contemporary and changing needs. The historic limestone façade was restored, and new, thermally improved steel windows that replicate the originals were installed. New systems, acoustic improvements, and code and accessibility upgrades enhance the day-to-day experience of the building for the 675-person mathematics community of faculty, students, and staff. New gathering and collaborative spaces, office renovations, new furnishings, and a 13,500-square-foot rooftop addition merge contemporary expression with historic character, providing the Department of Mathematics with a fresh identity that fits respectfully within the Main Group.
