The Ty Williams Memorial Pavilion is the latest addition to Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary’s campus in Wake Forest, North Carolina. The venue was constructed to facilitate conversation while providing a space for study, fellowship, and reflection. Nestled amongst century-old oak trees, pines, and magnolias and the Georgian campus buildings, the venue offers a park-like environment. The structure features a wood deck ceiling and slightly curved beams. Large stone columns with sconce lighting, concrete flooring, metal roofing, LED lighting, ceiling fans, and interchangeable seating with tables create a space students want to visit.
