FLEXIBLE
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR CONSTANT CHANGE
Because Centennial’s curricula are variable to respond
to changing technologies and industry demands, the concept
adapts the characteristics of a loft building to create flexible
and generic space in order to facilitate constant change.
The concrete framed structure is designed as a 20 x 40 foot
structural grid with clear span raised floors, operable windows,
high ceilings and internal partitions that can be shifted
on a five foot grid.
The HP Centre offers a mature model for a community college
that embraces the gamut of arrivals and departures; that supports
the daily needs of students and faculty to socialize, to be
nourished, to learn and study, to teach and instruct; and
that creates a context in which to be inspired and to celebrate
achievement.
