The University of Wisconsin Hockey lobby and offices were originally constructed in 1998 and the space has remained unchanged for almost twenty years. With a head coaching change and a renewed focus on winning National Championships, it was appropriate to demo and completely renovate the space. UW Athletics asked Thysse to provide experiential (environmental) graphics for the new space. Thysse partnered with general contractor J.P. Cullen on the project, to design new features and modify existing elements for the new space. Working closely with the general contractor allowed Thysse to identify and address electrical and structural needs early on in the project, saving money and time in an already tight project schedule.
