Floor-to-ceiling glass curtain walls (above and right) flood the Cuisinart Center for Culinary Excellence with natural light. A portion of the building closest to Narragansett Bay is cantilevered on columns (opposite, top). The well-lit corridors (opposite, bottom) are a beacon at night, with the wall graphics and student activity visible to passersby in the campus quad. The corridors serve as a vital “Main Street” on the upper floors, connecting classrooms and specialized labs.
