Finegold Alexander reimagined the BU School of Medicine’s Alumni Medical Library stack level with this $3.5 million, fast-tracked construction project. The existing spaces had not been substantially renovated since their late 1960’s construction. Harsh fluorescent lighting, utilitarian study tables and vast book stacks have been replaced with the open, light-filled Learning Resource Center. The layout and furniture choices allow for a variety of styles of heads-down, focused concentration for this quiet study floor. Natural wood finishes, soft flooring, abundant natural light and touches of BU red create a calming yet vibrant space.
