Mead Dormitory is one of Mount Holyoke\u2019s historic centennial dormitories. Located on the central campus, this stately 42,000 SF dormitory underwent a complete renovation that included addressing accessibility issues and complete infrastructure upgrades. The former dining room became a bright living room\/game room that was opened up to the rest of the building with a windowed wall facing onto the main corridor. An informal dining area, \u201cthe Golden Pear,\u201d was added as was a casual caf\u00e9-style area. Several of the original formal social areas were converted to suites; however, the original parlor was updated but with its original historic ambience retained. While preserving and replicating many key architectural details, Mead emerged refreshed and more vibrant and inviting. The building was recognized for Outstanding Design in Interior Renovation by American School & University magazine.<\/p>\n
