William M. Colmer Visitors Center

The William M. Colmer Visitors Center and Park Headquarters is an educational center that was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. As a fifth year architecture student, I was asked to redesign the building using the first three design phases: Schematic Design, Design Development, and Construction Documents. The new facility would increase Southern Louisiana wildlife education for visitors. It would also be LEED Certified and have a museum-like quality with a focus on the ecosystem surrounding it.
