Sustainability

Located between a hillside and the city’s urban center, the new Recreation and Wellness Center anchors student life activity in a high-performance building dedicated to fostering well-being.

 

 

The new center promotes a holistic approach to wellness by integrating recreation, fitness, mental health, and academic spaces under one roof.  The design leverages the site’s unique topography, connecting the upper and lower portions of campus with a pedestrian through way. Streamlined circulation and the transparent façade will increase campus connectivity by blurring the boundaries between the inside and outside of the building.
