THE RENAISSANCE CENTER, DICKSON,
TENNESSEE This 102,798 sq. ft. facility represents a dynamic new direction in education envisioned by a non-profit organization, the Jackson Foundation. Organized around a cone-roofed, sky-lit rotunda, a pair of two-story long rectangular wings provide the main mass of the structure, spreading to the north and east with upward sloping roofs implying the wings of an airplane. In this case, a strong desire to create a unique facility using quality, long-lasting materials and incorporating cutting edge, state of the art technologies was paramount. The latest learning and instructional technology are emphasized while marrying the arts and the sciences within a structure that evokes an excitement for learning. Awards. |
