Full of historic character, the Scott College of Business at Indiana State University required a two-phase renovation to provide students with flexible learning environments and updated technology. Mimicking the original building’s scale and materials, Schmidt Associates restored the timeless limestone façade of the building that was once a post office and courthouse. We retained the historic character of the building with plaster-arched ceilings, decorative painting, marble wainscoting, and decorative light fixtures, while tucking new high-tech classrooms behind wide, restored corridors. The building’s grandiose, two-story federal courtroom was fully preserved and simply rewired to accommodate modern technology. In addition, a new trading lab provides a real world, hands-on simulation for incoming Indiana State University business students.
