Cuyamaca College, Communication Arts Building


Situated on a hillside on the Grossmont-Cuyamaca College campus, the Communication Arts Building is a three-story, 84,000-square-foot facility.

Its central vertical circulation structure serves as the campus’ primary means of pedestrian movement between its upper and lower levels and as an “entry building” to the rest of campus.

The facility includes multi-disciplinary laboratories and independent learning facilities for areas of study including English, English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL), reading, speech, American Sign Language, music, fine arts, professional art, and related assisted learning. The center offers independent learning labs, performance and assembly spaces, and necessary support facilities to maintain the educational master plan for the associated curriculum. In total, the space offers 18 labs and 14 classrooms.

Rudolph and Sletten served as construction manager for the Communication Arts Center at Cuyamaca College in Rancho San Diego, A suburb of East San Diego County. The facility houses the reading, speech, English American Sign Language, English as a Second Language, music, fine arts, theater arts, and assisted learning programs.

NTD Architecture designed the 90,000 square foot facility, which brings a first ever performance venue to the campus: a 366-seat multi-purpose auditorium that will be used for recitals, concerts, and theater productions, as well as for assemblies.

The center also includes a 90-seat digital theater with widescreen cinema projection for instructors’ multimedia presentation, a music/media library, rehearsal space, music practice rooms, and art studios. In addition, the Communication Arts facility adds multi-disciplinary laboratory and independent learning spaces for the various programs.

The three-story building is constructed of steel and cast-in-place concrete. Some 57,000 cubic yards of soil were excavated for a vacant hillside to provide space for the center. After excavation, Rudolph and Sletten constructed a 23,675 square foot retaining wall for the shoring system, with 166 soldier beams.

Rudolph and Sletten has completed a number of projects for the Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District, including the Cuyamaca College Student center and the Science and Technology Center.
