MasterCare Flooring

Client:

University of Maryland, Baltimore

Scope Of Work

The Medical School Teaching Facility at the University of Maryland is a state-of-the-art education and event space where physicians, scientists, medical students and graduate students work collaboratively in research and learning.

MasterCare Flooring was selected to handle the wood flooring installation for this high profile project designed by Read & Company Architects Inc.  The Architect’s vision of clean, precise sight lines created a high level of detail and design challenges. The wood materials specified were select, vertical grain ash, which was quite difficult to procure due to the devastating blight brought on by the Emerald Ash Borer, which has killed hundreds of millions of ash trees in North America. This particular selection of wood may indeed become a watershed moment, as the number of Ash trees in the world decreases daily.  This auditorium will become a landmark that can never be replicated, the coordination of details with all the other participatory trades resulted in a visually stunning space.

The Medical School Teaching Facility is a center point of the campus and the MasterCare team is honored to have been part of this magnificent renovation.
