M odernizing the Beta Mu house to provide the best facilities for our brothers, alumni, and guests was led by Keystone Architecture and Simeone Deary design. The team was tasked with preserving the house, protecting our brothers, and redesigning the facility to better accommodate Beta Mu. As the primary meeting area, the Big Room offers an incredible space for brothers to socialize and alumni to gather during reunions. Unfortunately, to access the space it required going through one of the stairwells, and once downstairs no bathrooms could be found. To use the porch space it required a trip through the stairwell and out a single door. Features • Grand staircase - easy access from the mezzanine to the Big Room • New space incorporating men's/ women's restrooms and storage • French doors leading from the Big Room directly to the patio • Elevator with service to the ground floor, first floor, and second floor Project Plans BiG rooM First FLoor The first floor entryway previously led entrants to a small entry/mailroom. With minimal restroom facilities and an outdated and underutilized kitchen space the main living area of the house leaves much opportunity to redesign. This coupled with a lack of secure storage left a garage that wasted space. Features • Extended entryway with portico • Large trophy and archive room greets guests after entry • New men's and women's restrooms • Redesigned kitchen incorporating a better use of space and updated appliances • Thoughtfully designed prep kitchen and pantry area for chef or catering use • Converted cold storage with access to prep kitchen • Reclaimed space from the garage will provide secure general purpose storage • Elevator providing all guests access to house BIG ROOM
