CYPRESS CAMPUS CENTER RENOVATION ALAMO COLLEGES

During my internship at Overland Partners, I had the opportunity to contribute to the redesign of the Cypress Campus Center, a renovation project aimed at transforming a pre-existing structure into a vibrant “third place” on the NVC campus. This revitalized activity hub is designed to enhance the holistic student experience beyond the classroom, bringing together students, faculty, staff, and the community to foster academic excellence, shared identity, and engagement.
My involvement spanned from Schematic Design (SD) to Construction Administration (CA), covering 10 months of work. Throughout this process, I gained hands-on experience in multiple aspects of the architectural workflow, from early conceptual development to the refinement of final details. Working closely with the design team, I contributed to spatial planning, digital modeling, renderings, and construction documentation, ensuring that the project’s vision was effectively carried through each phase while respecting and adapting the existing structure.
