Grand View University Student Center

FEH DESIGN

Recognitions: People's Choice Award 2017

Project Description

The new Student Center at Grand View University has become a showcase for the University and the heart of campus. It has also become a recruitment tool for Admissions as GVU welcomes and hosts potential students on campus tours. The design team worked closely with faculty and student representatives to create unique spaces that students would be drawn to. Offering a variety of amenities, the facility has become a vibrant hub on campus, buzzing with students at all hours. Students have afterhours access to the premier dining facility and “CJ’s place”, a student lounge with flexible furnishings and a snack bar that has become a favorite meeting spot for students. Grand View’s student newspaper publication and radio station are also located in the new facility, as well as the Bookstore and Viking Theatre. In addition to the computer labs, classrooms and Presentation Hall, there are faculty offices and flexible meeting spaces for both faculty and students to collaborate.
