The new Design and Innovation Building at UCSD will be a
74,000-square-foot building situated at the south edge of the
existing Structural and Materials Engineering Building, and just
north of the future Light Rail Transit (LRT) station. The
building will contain numerous workspaces that can be easily
reconfigured to host programs, meetings, multidisciplinary
instruction, and studio learning to enhance the collaborative and
innovative activities which are currently distributed across the
campus. The building was designed by EHDD of San Francisco, CA. Construction is
anticipated to start in summer or fall 2019 and be complete in 18
months.
Jamie Awford, Principal at
BNBuilders, states, "The new Design and Innovation Building
is an exciting project on many levels. Not only will it
provide space to enhance the learning and innovative activities at
UCSD, it will also serve as the campus entrance from the new Light
Rail Transit station, and welcome students, staff, and visitors to
the campus."
