We are thrilled to announce we are working with Skidmore College on their new Science Center. This is an exciting new project for our firm and we look forward to working with Skidmore College to expand their science programs.
Skidmore College emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach to all areas of study as well as a distinctive combining of liberal arts with professional programs. A central belief at Skidmore is that every life and every endeavor is made more profound with creative ability at its core, and creative thinking is an integral part of the campus culture. The cornerstone of the curriculum is the belief that a liberal arts education is the best preparation both for a life of continued learning and for a meaningful career, particularly as graduates face the challenges and opportunities of a world of rapid and unpredictable change.
The science programs at Skidmore focus on both disciplinary and interdisciplinary areas in the natural sciences and mathematics with majors offered in Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Environmental Studies/Science, Geosciences, Health and Exercise Sciences, Neuroscience, Mathematics, Physics and Psychology.
The 2025 OpenLAB Boston studio work will be exhibited at Virginia Tech Monday, March 2nd through Wednesday, March 4th.
Please join us for the following events on Monday, March 2nd:
11:00am - Lecture with Parke MacDowell
1:00pm Lobby talk with Kevin Sullivan
This year’s studio identifies seven sites along the frayed edges of Boston’s Greenway. The Greenway is a one-mile-long linear park running through the heart of the city, reconnecting downtown Boston with its waterfront. Many of the parcels along its edges remain undeveloped and present mute, blank facades to the public realm. Addressing and repairing these edges through acts of infilling, layering, grafting, framing, and placemaking is the core focus of the studio—SUTURE.
