该校园最初由SOM于1954年设计,自2004年起被指定为国家历史地标区,可容纳大约550名工作人员和4 000多名学生。CCLD将作为校园的新建筑中心,同时在视觉上抵消学院的标志性和醒目的学员礼拜堂,它就在新建筑的隔壁。
该中心占地四万六千平方英尺,位于场地的公共区域和学员区之间的一个关键交汇点,因为它是由不同的建筑部门选定的地点,每个部门都指定给教授、学员、重要的访客和公众。新大楼将包括一个论坛、一个灵活的工作空间、协作会议室和研究室,以及一个图书馆、办公室和一个荣誉委员会室,在那里举行与学员荣誉守则有关的重要事项。
一个105英尺高的天窗隐约出现在CCLD的游客身上,将自然光投射到建筑物的深处。玻璃结构的设计是为了与北极星的位置保持一致,以体现学院的指导价值。动态结构是一种建筑和工程奇迹,它由建筑外露的结构钢(AESS)构成,没有任何点缀或装饰,其光滑的连接与SOM的精致和剪裁设计协调一致。
SOM的设计合作伙伴罗杰·达菲(Roger Duffy)说:“我们的品格和领导力发展中心为美国空军学院创造了一个独特的当代偶像,同时也尊重最初校园计划的纪律和严谨。”“我们很荣幸有机会重新审视我们最重要的项目之一,并在校园的中心地带作出21世纪的贡献。”
The dynamic skylight is composed from an Architecturally Exposed Structural Steel (AESS), existing without any embellishment or ornamentation and with sleek connections, which work in aesthetic harmony with SOM’s refined and pared-back design
Totalling 46,000-square-foot, the CCLD is situated to be a critical meeting point between public and cadet areas of the site, acting as a nexus to all of the Academy's visitors
The CCLD will contain a forum, a flexible working space, collaboration conference and seminar rooms along with a library, offices and an honour board room where important matters concerning the Cadet Honor Code are held
A 105-foot skylight looms over the CCLD’s visitors, casting natural light into the depths of the building. The glass structure was symbolically designed to align with the position of the North Star
