The Recreation Center at Hofstra University was an undersized, dreary place.  Through expansion and comprehensive renovation, it has been transformed into a vibrant, state-of-the-art fitness destination for the entire college community.

​

A new glass pavilion replaces the original small lobby with a double-height entry and lounge; it also improves the Center's visibility on campus. The building's original opaque walls have been replaced with metal and glass partitions resulting in an open, transparent interior, promoting synergy between program spaces. The indoor track has been redesigned to weave through these program spaces to facilitate interaction.  A new 7,000 sf addition contains four barrel-vaulted spaces for yoga, dance, spinning and weights. The new corridors are punctuated by skylights and feature built-in LED displays.
