Utah State University IT Services Building
Taking advantage of the opportunity to design a new home for USU’s IT Services, MHTN led the department through a programming process with significant visioning to imagine their new facility, how teams would interact, and how to create the best possible working environment for employees. Oriented north to south according to the campus master plan, a two-story light-filled central corridor connects a series of smaller wings with work areas, striking a balance between team and individual productivity. Each of the wings extend out from the central structure of the building to permit favorable light and views of Cache Valley.
The design embraces the department’s dynamic and evolving nature by utilizing principles of modular design to create a building with a long life and loose fit, to evolve over time with the needs of the department. The result of the significant engagement throughout programming and design is a highly efficient design, allowing for future expansion, while achieving the goals of team unity and future flexibility.
