A Complete Redesign of the MAC Athletics Center Lobby & Hall of Fame
Siena College entrusted Creatacor with a complete transformation of the MAC Athletics Center lobby and student Hall of Fame. This project required a high level of finish quality to create an immersive experience that celebrates the rich history and achievements of Siena’s athletic programs while providing a fresh, modern look for current and future students, alumni, and visitors.
At Creatacor, we pride ourselves on delivering world-class solutions beyond the trade show floor. Our latest project with Siena College in Albany, New York exemplifies our ability to create high-impact, visually stunning environments. We have nearly 40 years of expertise in retail storefront design, museum exhibits, corporate installations, and educational facility enhancements. We were thrilled to work with a nationally respected college right here in our backyard.

A Seamless, In-House Process from Start to Finish
Creatacor managed every stage of the project over nearly two years, ensuring a streamlined and efficient experience:
- Initial Site Visit & Consultation: We collaborated with Siena College to understand their vision, brand identity, and functional needs. We met with the schools administration and created a timeline to complete the renovation. We then immediately began deconstructing the current space and began to lay the ground work for our improvements.
- Full Design Service: Our design team developed a dynamic, visually striking fresh concept that honors Siena’s athletic heritage while incorporating cutting-edge design elements. The space was being completely reimagined and would now be utilized as a Hall of Fame for former athletes. In addition to a total visual overhaul, we also incorporated unique technology in the form of interactive displays for guest to use. Our design maximized the use of the existing lobby while modernizing the entire space with updated power, lighting, A/V, drinking fountains and restrooms.
- Precision Fabrication & Installation: As with all of our permanent installations, they must live up to their name –– permanent. This means our build team executed the design with exceptional craftsmanship, utilizing premium materials and finishes to enhance the aesthetic appeal and durability of the space. As both the new Hall of Fame but also still the main entrance and exit for this building, it needed to be able to handle thousands of visitors each month for decades to come. Our fabrication team, along with local vendors, took the entire space down to wall studs, replacing and updating every wall, floor, pillar, door and light fixture.
- Post-Installation Support: Even after completion, Creatacor will continue to provide ongoing support, ensuring the space remains in top condition for years to come.
