Gamesmanship

Article Abstract:

The US Olympic Committee executive director's office in Colorado Springs, CO, and government affairs office in Washington, DC, featured two different designs but both evoking the Olympic spirit. Generally, the interiors featured current office design trends punctuated with Olympic-related visual displays. The government affairs office's 61-ft long corridor showed red markers of Olympic long jumps and blow-up picture of the Olympic long jump record. The executive director's office includes a montage of sports events and features rich colors and interior elements designed from sports equipment.

Article Abstract:

The McCullough Student Center of Middlebury College in Vermont successfully integrates two disparate buildings into one center. Hardy Holzman Pfeiffer Assoc adopted their middleground approach and effectively balanced traditional design and individual expression. They achieved this by adding two octagonal pavilions andtwo auxiliary ones at each side of the original 1912 gym. These served to conceal the gym's connection with the pool building and unify the whole structure. The interior takes advantage of the outdoor views and allows for ventilation and natural lighting.
