PDG to Receive Golden Brick Award

Powell Design Group, along with our Design/Build partner Williams Co., will receive a Golden Brick Award this month from the City of Orlando’s Downtown Orlando Partnership for the Executive MBA Classroom Project for UCF. The Golden Brick is awarded to projects which demonstrate design excellence while contributing significantly to the quality of life in Orlando’s downtown core.

The Executive MBA Classroom project involved the remodeling of a historic building currently in use as a UCF classroom building, and included the redesign of 9,418 SF of second floor area. A beautiful new lecture hall with tiered seating for 64 people, perimeter offices, break-out room, kitchenette, student lounge and support spaces were among the improvements to the space.

Careful phasing of the project made it possible for existing facilities to remain in full operation during the construction process.
