The site plan and design located buildings to establish outdoor gathering places and connect to other campus destinations along a north/south axis. Four small walled courtyards provide intimate spaces at building entries. The main lawn creates a central gathering place and a forecourt to the complex’s dining hall. Covered walkways frame the main lawn area and a series of semi-enclosed seating areas are adjacent to the main quad.
