Deadline: April 30, 2021

More information available here.

The University of Florida Data Science and Information Technology Building will house 4 user groups: the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, the College of Medicine, the College of Pharmacy and the Informatics Institute, which is part of UF Research.

A thoughtful design unites these departments through an open stairwell “spine” connecting the 7 floors of the building with informal gathering spaces. Department branding will adorn the landings of each level.

Although all possible locations for art are listed, it is not expected that all locations will receive art for the budget.

Locations for art, in order of priority, are:

Interior:

1.     Main Lobby

a.     Art permanently installed on the floor cannot be considered for this location as the layout must remain flexible to accommodate various functions.

b.     Other locations at this site are under consideration.

2.     Collaborative Spine

a.     Open stairwell located to the east side of the Main Lobby and spans all 7 floors of the building.

b.     Suspended art will be considered

3.     Entry Wall

a.     Located on the south east corner of the Main Lobby and measures 19’ in length and 11’ in height.

b.     Second level of wall is located one floor below and measures 10’ 6” in length and 11’ in height.

4.     Elevator Alcoves

a.     Will have seating areas

b.     Measures 18’ in length, 10’ 6” in width and 10’ 2” in height

5.     Glass

a.     Conference Room glass walls to the south of the Main Lobby on levels 2 and 3

b.     Measures 26’ 6” in length and 10’ in height

Exterior locations:
