Project Description: Programming and design of a 20,000 Square foot fire station incorporating a community information center. Focus of the project was site selection, site design, and architectural design including the development of a facility program developed in a community participation design process.

Currently the Levelland Fire Department is seeking grants and awards to help fund this new facility. In an effort to generate sustained interest throughout the community the CDL proposed several designs by individual students to test program requirements and study possible facility sizes and configurations.

A central goal of this study was to generate community and user input throughout the design process emphasizing to the students the importance of participatory design methods. All students were required to use digital media in the development of the design and in presentation.
