As designer and project architect in his previous firm, Brummel’s history offered him an array of other educational work. Above, the Crookston Campus complex, a series of colorful metal service buildings surrounding a massive barn for the display and work on agricultural animals, became both the focal point for the campus as well as the adjacent northern Minnesota farming community it served. Below, work on the famed Northrop Auditorium involved the addition of a handicap entry to an internal elevator tower. The architecture required a delicate placement of an entry that needed to be both obscure by not dominating the famed steps of the facility yet still be noticeable and beautiful at the same time.
