• Interpreting elements of the Spanish Renaissance style, our design creates a distinctive visual identity that is sensitive to its context, while inspiring collaboration among students and faculty.
• The facility embodies the college’s vision for an academic home and social center that expresses the professionalism of its faculty and graduates. This supports a curriculum that emphasizes stimulating teaching and business research complemented by social service.
• Our design fosters interaction at all scales. It centers upon a generous day-lit atrium and landscaped courtyards—places where larger gatherings and events are easily accommodated, while small gatherings occur in more intimate breakout areas, lounges and conference rooms.
• The classrooms are comfortable, flexible and technologically sophisticated, providing a range of learning settings to meet a diversity of instructional and pedagogical approaches.
