This building introduces an architectural vocabulary to a sprawling campus. Modern and natural materials were incorporated into the interior and exterior design. This building serves as the “gateway” to the college campus. The building contains a grand lobby and learning commons surrounded by classrooms, a lecture theatre, a reception and more. The project is linked to the other campus buildings at three levels. The combination of classrooms around the “commons” emphasizes connectivity amongst the various forms of teaching and learning, creating a sense of community for the students.
