As the project neared completion, the college decided to connect the Williams Building to the Arts Plaza and opted for a new entrance located within the clink�er brick-faced side wall. Spillman Farmer created a new�opening in an existing cor�ridor inside the Williams Building. The design team used this new, final element of the plaza to introduce a three-dimen�sional, human-scale elemem into the wall. The new entrance features a gabled frame constructed entirely of clinker brick. The new opening's undulating lines highlight the texture and irregular�ity of the brick.
In addition to Spillman Farmer, other project team members included Whiting�Turner Contracting Co., construction manager; Lehigh Valley Engineering, elec�trical engineer; Barry Isett and Associates, structural engineer, and McTish, Kunkel & Associates., civil engineer.
