Arnold Hall
Savannah College of Art and Design Savannah, GA- Restoration of 88,000 sf abandoned public high school building
- Environmentally responsible design to achieve College’s first LEED Certified Classroom Building

The 1920 Richard Arnold building remained a prominent structure within the Thomas Square Streetcar Historic District. Savannah College of Art and Design purchased the building to return it to its original use and to achieve LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification as a sustainable green building. The meticulous restoration provided 32 classrooms, a studio, faculty offices and a 400-seat performance auditorium, including preservation of painted proscenium murals which were part of the WPA Murals Program.
