The Assignment: Design and Construct the Ultimate University Campus “Living Room”
Considered the “living room” of campus, the Anderson Student Center at the University of St. Thomas is a dynamic 258,000-square-foot student-centric facility. Located in the heart of the UST campus, the facility is designed primarily for students, featuring recreation and dining areas, campus resources, a bowling center and other unique gathering spaces, while welcoming community neighbors to share the space and state-of-the-art meeting rooms.
The building’s large center atrium provides students convenient access to and views of the center’s main venues. This area features a circular staircase and expansive windows that face the main campus artery, commonly referred to as the quad.
