The design stitches a new campus focal point into the current fabric of the campus, creating diverse types of spaces for students to gather and study. Through the addition of a new plaza, the design strengthens the central axis of the campus and accommodated future expansion.  Additionally, understanding that space is a commodity in urban campuses, the design uses opportunities such as grade changes, shade trees, and different types of seat edges to encourage students to occupy their campus in ways that personalize their experience.
