Press release from the issuing company:
School is back in session, and Purdue University Northwest started the semester with a brand-new dorm and upgraded classroom office building, with support from Pulse Technology. Pulse’s long-standing partnership with Purdue University Northwest (PNW) includes the recent completion of major furnishing projects for both the university’s Classroom Office Building (CLO) and the newly constructed Calumet Hall dormitory. The mission with Calumet Hall was to create a space for students to thrive, with furniture designed to meet students’ needs as they live and study on the campus.
For the Classroom Office Building project, the Pulse team collaborated with PNW’s Amy Snyder, senior interior designer of Campus Planning & Design, to create an innovative environment where students can study, collaborate, and connect. The furnishings were carefully selected to elevate the campus aesthetic while fostering a strong sense of community. The design seamlessly integrates the school’s iconic gold, black, and silver color palette across various seating arrangements, tables, and architectural details along a main walkway.
In Calumet Hall, the design strategy shifted slightly to blend collaborative functionality with a comfortable, residential atmosphere. While common areas remain optimized for academic collaboration, the space prioritizes premium soft seating designed for student relaxation. To cultivate a warmer, more inviting environment distinct from the CLO, the color scheme features a vibrant palette of greens, blues, and oranges.
The entire Pulse Technology team, including Matt Leake and Jolee Allerding, has collaborated closely with PNW over the past several years to bring these vision-driven spaces to life. “We are honored to support PNW’s growth and look forward to continuing our successful partnership in the future,” said Jolee Allerding, Senior Project Designer, Indiana branch.
