The scope includes 43,000 linear ft of steel stud framing, 42,000 ft² of drywall/sheathing, 21,000 ft² of insulation and a range of acoustic and decorative finishes including 5,400 ft² of acoustic ceiling tile, 1,700 ft² of decorative acoustic ceiling panels, 1,500 ft² of decorative wall panels and 1,100 ft² of wood-slat ceilings. Designed with cultural input and detailing to honour Secwépemc traditions, the project brings high quality, performance-driven interior systems to a meaningful institutional space.
