LEXINGTON, Ky. The University of Kentucky’s College of Design has selected the Studio Gang as designer for the Reynolds Building, an early-20th-century building that was once a tobacco warehouse, for new use by the college.
The university has had its sights set on the building for a half-century, as its convenient location will allow for the school’s design courses and studio space to grow in the years to come. Furthermore, by maintaining the historic building’s architectural motifs, students in the design school will be able to observe earlier iterations of American designs up close and personal. Its interiors and exterior will be largely kept intact as the building is repurposed for instruction in such specialties as product design, biomedical engineering and landscape architecture.
