GCU Classroom Building

^{Computer Labs | Tutoring Labs  | Learning Studios Offices}

^{4 story | 39,000 SF | $7M | Phoenix | 2014}

^{Located across Alumni Mall from the College of Arts and Science, the built form expresses the building material while metaphorically embodying the mission of the University within the basic design concept. The masonry at the first floor symbolically represents the foundation of the Christian values of the University.  The building massing is an interplay of the collaboration between the faculty and students. The pure white masses on the 2nd and 4th floor, represents the open and malleable mind of the student, while the grey steel 3rd floor which cantilever’s and slides between the two student floors, represent the infusion of the university education through faculty interaction.
