The SWRC Weight Room Expansion is designed to provide an inviting space for students, staff, alumni, and visitors while supporting health, fitness, and recreation. The expansion emphasizes openness, visibility, and aesthetics, creating a seamless experience between the existing facility and the new areas.

The facility includes strength and conditioning areas, indoor courts, training rooms, and community spaces used by a large student population. The building also functions as a hurricane shelter for the campus community.

Artists are invited to develop proposals that complement the architecture and create an engaging visual environment that inspires activity and well-being.

The building expansion prioritizes environmental performance including:

  • Indoor air quality

  • Acoustic comfort

  • Moisture control

  • Long-term durability

Artists are encouraged to propose materials and approaches compatible with sustainable design practices.
