Story

This largely formed concrete structure houses the University's School of Business.  It has two-story, teired, "smart" class rooms, enclosed connecting link walkway, 212 teired seat auditorium, student gathing space, coffee shop and takes advantage of one of the best views of Bismarck.  This project was to create a bold architectural design to inspire students and reaffirm the University's progressive values, establish a design aesthetic complimentary to the adjacent chapel and monastery designed by iconic modernist architect Marcel Breuer, and to exploit the site's hilltop location by emphasizing the sweeping views of the Missouri River Valley.
