Student Dormitory | Walnut Hill School for the Arts
In collaboration with Stephen Stimson, Landscape Architect and Lisa Hillson, Interiors.
This new dormitory for the Walnut Hill School School for the Arts houses 42 students and seven faculty residences. The three-story wood-frame structure accommodates 12-14 students on each floor with a dorm parent suite at the end of each hall. The building was carefully sited to work with the existing pathways on the campus and to create an organic commons between the other student and faculty residences. A pathway runs directly through the building to separate those functions and to maintain a connection to the main campus and views looking west.
