Project Description
Goody Clancy was selected to design the new Media Arts and Innovation Center (MAIC) at the University of Rochester. The selection was the result of an invited design competition involving significant collaboration with the faculty and user groups. This new facility brings together programs in Engineering and the Arts and is designed to provide an environment that promotes individual and team approaches to innovation and creativity.
Our design concept focused on the idea of a sandbox, where people working in close proximity can access the resources and the tools to conceptualize and then fabricate their ideas. Visual openness and transparency to encourage meaningful collaboration are key elements of the sandbox. The open floor plans are flexible and adaptable for a broad range of collective endeavors.
The new building comprises approximately 9,500 SF of net program space on three floors. The MAIC program intentionally blurs the boundaries between the arts and engineering, which helps foster a culture of collaboration. Specific program spaces include a fabrication shop that is flexible and reconfigurable and has space for prototype design and production, a multi-purpose learning studio, video recording studio, post-production studio, and open space to support social and academic interaction. The project is targeted for completion in August 2013.
