Cushing Academy

ARC designed two new dormitories for Cushing Academy, Lee House and Sanborn House, as the first step in implementing a comprehensive campus master plan, also completed by ARC. The buildings together house 90 students in single rooms, and eight faculty families in apartments and townhouses. Every floor has space for socializing and group study, with daylit common rooms featuring high ceilings. Faculty residences are designed to provide privacy for families, while also facilitating easy student access, with a faculty study for student-advisor interaction. Thoughtfully located near the main dining commons and other housing on campus, the new housing contributes to a cohesive residential neighborhood.
