An increasing need for space drove the extension and renovation of the Dean’s Office of Science at the University of Manitoba. The conversion of a small adjacent study space to a front office facilitated a more public façade for the office and assisted with providing ease of access for student and professional inquiries. With an increase in students additional offices were required to accommodate advising and administration for the faculty. The space accommodates three banks of offices; a central bank and two others flanking each side. Anodized aluminum frames with large spans of glazing were used throughout to allow natural light from the existing windows to penetrate into the space. An underlying theme of transparency and openness carries throughout both spaces.
