Grinnell College Campus Center (Lighting Design)

Grinnell, IA, United States

YEAR
2008
Dining, social and cultural facilities are united in this new College Campus Center replacing existing facilities scattered on far ends of the campus. Charged with imbuing each room with a distinct personality, the lighting plays a vital role in establishing the atmosphere.
The U-shaped center is organized around a central courtyard . The glass-fronted dining halls give visual connections to the spaces across the square. Each area has a unique identity, with the lighting sources and details helping to create a cohesive composition. Wood ceilings and surfaces are highlighted. and round and oval shaped fixtures are featured in the design as a recurring motif.
The College has a strong commitment to sustainable design and environmental responsibility, but started the design process with the firm belief that only incandescent lighting could make food look good. Through mock-ups we persuaded them to use more efficient sources to achieve the desired effect. The Campus Center’s interior lighting installation uses 17% less power than the maximum allowed by code, and the exterior uses 75% less. These results exceeded the College’s expectation for environmental stewardship.
The warm and inviting lighting is at times playful, intimate, formal and soothing. Most of all, it helps create a gathering space for all the college community to come together
