The Jim and Janet Sinegal Center for Science and Innovation at Seattle University has won a Higher Education Design Award from the International Interior Design Association New England Chapter.  Partnering with Mithun of Seattle, it was a privilege to bring this project to life for Seattle University. 
 
Designed as a vibrant, student-centric hub, the Center fosters interaction among all university students, promoting exploration, collaboration, and experiential learning. The central atrium serves as a focal point, complemented by a dynamic skylight, and transparency is incorporated throughout both interior and exterior to showcase student life and experience.

Embracing a future-proof approach, the facility prioritizes flexible, efficient planning, with thoughtfully organized spaces and intuitive wayfinding that creates a feeling of relaxation among users. The Center’s LEED Gold certification reflects a commitment to sustainability with authentic, locally sourced materials that are durable and maintainable.
