Education Hall, Oregon State University Oregon State University in Corvallis, Oregon, was founded in 1868, and is the state’s largest public research university. It ranks fourth among universities nationwide for its use of renewable energy. OSU’s Education Hall, built in 1902, was scheduled for demolition in 2002. It had undergone multiple renovations and a fire in its century of service when, on the occasion of its 100th anniversary, an effort was launched to save it. The historic building is receiving a seismic renovation consisting of a new foundation and replacement of its original sandstone with limestone which, according to the architect, will provide a more seismically stable exterior. The project is LEED certified-equivalent, the renovation nearly waste-free. Architect: Fletcher, Farr, Ayotte |

Tom Otterness Public Art Installation The separate pieces of this installation will convey the “flux and change” of a sculpture studio, according to Otterness, who was inspired by “the ancient idea of bringing a sculpture to life.” The artist says he chose Indiana limestone because he wanted the installation to have a visual connection with the museum, built of the same stone. See more of the design concept and photos of the work in progress. Cubic Feet: 1,189; finished work: 700 |
