Worcester Dining Commons at UMass Amherst (Mockup)

Worcester Dining Commons at UMass Amherst (Mockup)

by Alex SchreyerNo Comments
Opened in October 2020, the Worcester Commons building at UMass Amherst is an 87,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility designed by Perry Dean Rogers Architects to anchor the Northeast Residential Area. Replacing the original mid-century dining hall, this $68 million, three-story building functions as a vibrant student life hub that seamlessly blends award-winning dining with campus community spaces. This mockup provides an excellent closeup view of one of the exterior design elements: A "pulled brick" design was employed in parts of the facade where header bricks occasionally protrude beyond the wall surface, creating a pattern that provides interesting shadows over the course of the day.

Amherst College Greenway Residences (Mockup)

by Alex SchreyerNo Comments
Designed by Kyu Sung Woo Architects and completed in 2016, the Amherst College Greenway Residences consist of a 110,000-square-foot, four-building undergraduate housing complex (Ford, Lee, Greenway C, and Nichols Biondi Halls) clustered along the scenic eastern edge of campus. While most of the facade consist of brick cladding, portions of it feature unique sections of perforated stainless steel metal panels accented with colored backing cassettes. This mockup shows an up-close view of those cassettes and highlights nicely the color backing.

This is yet another project where I just happened upon the mockup and don't have any further information. It is a great example for various facade detailing options (concrete panels, aluminum window systems, aluminum panels). What was most astonishing, though, was the fact that it was just standing in the open - not behind a fence - which gave it a more sculptural quality than is typical for these.

Integrated Sciences Building at UMass Amherst (Mockup)

by Alex SchreyerNo Comments
Designed by the architecture firm Payette and completed in 2009, the Integrated Sciences Building (ISB) at UMass Amherst is a 188,000-square-foot facility that serves as a major gateway for the university's life, chemical, and physical sciences. Architecturally, the building marks a deliberate shift away from the anonymous, insular laboratory designs of the mid-20th century, replacing them with a highly transparent, sustainable, and collaborative environment. This mockup highlights the masonry facade, which uses different color brick courses to give each story a horizontal accent.
