University students are focused today on a complete living environment rather than just a place to sleep. The trends that have emerged require that a combined living/learning environment be addressed. This condition is an important element in university recruitment.
University students are focused today on a complete living environment rather than just a place to sleep. The trends that have emerged require that a combined living/learning environment be addressed. This condition is an important element in university recruitment.
The primary elements that make up the environment include increased privacy, diverse living arrangements, flexible community spaces, sustainability (going green), technology, and security. The unique hybrid geothermal HVAC system will also be highlighted.
Southeastern Louisiana University (assisted by Holly & Smith Architects and constructed by DonahueFavret Constractors) has addressed these issues with the latest addition to their on-campus housing with the recent completion of
Ascension & Twelve Oaks Halls
in the heart of campus. These new buildings frame the entrance to the
Student Union
that was completed by Holly & Smith Architects with WTW Architects in 2016.
