Cosumnes River College - Winn Center

When Cosumnes River College was ready to design their new Winn Center for Construction and Architecture (Winn Center) it was important for the building to serve as a "living laboratory" for teaching building systems-a building that teaches. For example, ceilings were left unfinished to expose structural framing and mechanical ductwork. The team provided glass walls to expose transparent rainwater leaders, plumbing valves and a heat exchanger for students to see these systems first-hand within the structure.
This booklet is a guide to 15 key features of the Winn Center, with explanations, descriptions and intent for
each of these features in the Winn Center.
