This document is a Designer Solicitation from UNC-Chapel Hill Academic Affairs for the Memorial Hall Interior Restoration project, specifically focusing on auditorium ceiling repair. The project involves architectural services for a comprehensive restoration of Memorial Hall, originally constructed in 1931, with a planned advanced planning phase completed in spring 2025. UNC Chapel Hill is seeking a design firm to provide full design services, including preparation of construction documents, State Construction Office code review, construction administration, and project closeout. The solicitation requires proposers to be licensed in North Carolina, with Letters of Interest and SF-330 forms due by 08/21/2025.

The project has a budget of $1,300,000 and will address extensive ceiling damage, including plaster ceiling repairs and roof replacement already completed in early 2025. The scope includes architecturally sensitive repair techniques for both curved and flat plaster ceilings, with specific requirements to match existing materials and preserve historic decorative details. Lead paint and asbestos testing has been completed with negative results. Interested design firms must submit their proposals to Andrea Janusz, RA, at the UNC Chapel Hill Facilities Planning and Design office, located at 103 Airport Drive, Chapel Hill, NC 27599.
