Boston, MA – Tufts University School of Dental Medicine’s Vertical Expansion, designed by ARC/Architectural Resources Cambridge, was recently recognized by the Boston Society of Architects (BSA) and the New England Chapter of International Interior Design Association (IIDA) with two design awards.
The Expansion was awarded the Honor Award for Healthcare Facilities by the BSA and Best Education Design by IIDA New England.
The Tufts project also won “Best Practice Awards: Medium Project,” given annually by the Boston chapter of the International Facilities Management Association (IFMA), and also achieved LEED Silver Certification.
“We are honored to receive awards from both the Boston Society of Architects and the IIDA,” said Rob Quigley, AIA, a principal at ARC who led the design team for the project. “The integration of a new five-story vertical expansion with an existing 1970’s concrete building was quite a challenge, not only logistically, but also aesthetically. We are delighted to receive this acknowledgement of a successful project from our professional peers.”
