Queen's University, John Deutsch University Centre Revitalization
Kingston, Ontario
Our renovation and expansion of Queens’s John Deutsch University Centre transformed an introverted and underused residence and social hub into a fully accessible, vibrant, and sustainable home for student life on campus. The project not only adds spaces for students to learn, gather, and relax, but also rejuvenates the JDUC’s exterior.
