Furniture selections have been finalized, including options for desks, tables, storage, and chairs. Illustrations are available for review, which serve as appropriate representations of the selections but may not exactly match the final items purchased (e.g., seat colors for chairs). The items were selected based on efficiency relative to cost as well as flexibility, allowing for customization specific to individual needs. Managers will be reaching out to their employees regarding preferences.
Finishes and fabrics have been selected for workstations and chairs to be located in private offices and open office workstations. The goal in making these choices was to choose neutral and complementary colors for a professional office environment.
On February 18, another walkthrough of the construction site was completed and photos were taken to share progress and views with our faculty and staff. Plans for access to the property have been determined: card access will be provided for entry into the building and elevator, and key access will be provided in all other areas, with future potential for the expansion of card access in other areas.
