Creating a unique environment for students to grow and thrive
Facing a growth in student enrollment and a demand for a living and learning residential community, Texas Woman’s University’s (TWU) campus needed to expand. We were there to help.
TWU identified an immediate need for a sophomore village, but expressed the need for a long-term cohesive, comprehensive housing plan. The primary housing goals were clear—they wanted to create a student community, provide financially accessible housing, and offer intellectual and experiential learning. Our approach creates a strong transitional “move-up” plan for students, promoting student retention with the integration of academics into the residence halls as an extension of the learning environment.
The sophomore village includes pod-style living quarters and features residential amenities like lounge spaces, study areas, community gathering places, and a 616-seat dining hall. The dining hall creates a destination within the residential district that serves as a social and study hall. The multi-platform food hall arrangement provides variety for students to explore new cuisines and adapt to their needs throughout the day. In addition, the facility provides new “residence life” offices, multi-purpose classrooms, maker spaces, and three faculty apartments.
With the village now complete, TWU will be able to offer accessible housing that meets demand for the next decade.
