Project Description
The project was developed by Moriyama & Teshima Architects in association with MQN Architects. It aims to reflect the progressive culture at UBCO through a bold but simple design. The 62,400 SF building fulfills many student needs such as multi-purpose, technologically enhanced learning and research facilities. The design was strongly influenced by student feedback and input; Moriyama and Teshima Architects worked closely with the UBCO Students Union to ensure the building provided enough study space.
