Trinity International University – New Waybright Student Center
Deerfield, Illinois
Project Description
The Student Center houses all student organizations and provides areas for student projects, interdepartmental staff meetings and large alumni gatherings. The project, completed in two phases, began with construction of a new dining hall and complete kitchen facilities. The second phase involved the renovation of the former dining hall into meeting rooms, offices, and gathering spaces. Though not slated for LEED® certification, 20/10 designed many sustainable features into the project, including:
- New heating, ventilation, and A/C systems with high-efficiency boilers and packaged rooftop cooling units with evaporative condensing;
- New electrical, lighting, fire alarm and plumbing;
- Upgraded data and communication networks;
- Complete new kitchen facility with highly energy-efficient kitchen hoods that vary the amount of exhaust based on the amount of heat/smoke being generated by the equipment beneath them;
- New after-hours gathering spaces;
- Multi-use meeting rooms with CO2 sensors to control outside air required, saving energy.
