Wentworth’s new Center for Engineering, Innovation and Sciences boasts cutting edge labs, maker spaces, conferencing, classrooms and event spaces in a structure wrapped around a 3 story light well. Architectural lighting grazes the wood wall of the light well from skylight structure and up from below the communicating stair. Façade lighting set’s off the main entry both accentuating the super structure of the building, and glowing from uplighting within. Architecture by LWA.
