The conceptual design for the classroom is representative of a Latin American & Caribbean University classroom in the late 18th century, when the Spanish and Portuguese empires dominated the cultural, political, and economic aspects of their colonies in the region.

The design elements of the Latin American & Caribbean Heritage Room will reflect the architectural icons that are found throughout the region. The wooden carved seats along each wall are representative of the scholastic style of the monasteries which housed the Jesuit communities of the 18th century and were crafted by Indians and mestizos of the period.

The ceramic tile floor map accurately portrays the 18th century territory of the Spanish and Portuguese colonies. The murals, above the decorative seats, are indicative of the frescos painted by the renowned artist Diego Rivera. These murals will represent the encounters of the Aztecs with Cortez and the Incas with Pizarro.

The classic Spanish arc of the window design emphasizes the architectural influence of the conquistador. Finally, the wooden ceiling includes individual carved blocks and beams that add a cohesive dimension to unite the room's elements.

This proposed conceptual design will be refined and modified
according to the University's requirements and community's desires.
