Sporadic expansions over its hundred-year history had left the heart of North Campus University’s campus bisected by city streets and lacking a sense of identity. To return the campus to its students – and the aggressively urban setting to a more natural condition suited to student interaction – Hoerr Schaudt wove waving grasses, brick-lined pathways, and spaces designed for meeting, socializing and studying into a revitalized landscape. Additionally, the firm reconfigured the campus circulation, designed a signature look that enhances the existing architecture, and incorporated flexibility in the master plan for future expansions.
