Higher Education

The design of learning environments is, in many ways, connected to student success. It can evoke a feeling, enhance engagement and create a sense of place. Within higher education, design of the physical and experiential space is interconnected-- creating space to prepare the students of today for the careers of tomorrow.

INSPIRE

Collaboration. Critical Thinking.

Hands-on, collaborative, real-world learning. This is the higher education experience of today. Learning environments need to be innovative, inspiring and engaging to attract and retain both prospective and current students-- in addition to talented professors and staff-- in a competitive landscape. From student living to student activities and common areas to classrooms, create comfortable, secure and accessible campus environments that enhance community.

Create

Flexibility. Functionality.

Campus design needs to be functional and flexible, inviting and comforting, inspiring and personalized. It must balance acoustics, enhance connections to nature, withstand high traffic and encourage a sense of belonging. Through color, texture and pattern, design can set the tone for a space, creating environments that promote multifaceted learning and an adaptable layout.
