Historic campus meets modern housing

Deerfield Academy

Building on a trusted partnership, the design on the O’Byrne Curtis Dormitory was ARC’s 6th dormitory project and 14th overall partnership with Deerfield Academy. A goal of the new dormitory would be to replace some of the aging housing stock on campus while providing a more modern living experience.

Presentation Mode

The Dormitory was planned to have 30 student bedrooms and 3 faculty apartments.

ARC continued the relationship with Deerfield by designing a facility that would age purposefully and contribute to campus-wide energy savings by incorporating solar heat and PV panels.
