Description.

In conjunction with the Rayzor 119 remodel, Rice University selected STOA to renovate this single classroom at Rayzor Hall to align with the updated classroom standard. The existing configuration was re-designed to match the Rayzor 119 model, creating consistency across instructional spaces. Working within a tight budget and accelerated schedule, STOA collaborated closely with the pre-selected General Contractor to develop a trade permit drawing set, expediting the permitting process. STOA also partnered with Rice’s IT/AV Group to integrate advanced audiovisual systems along with automated lighting and mechanical controls. Upgrades included new LED lighting and controls, a ceiling-mounted projector and screen, and a new technology fur-out wall with FSR box at the lectern to support modern instructional needs.
