We do our best work with ambitious leaders in education who envision something beyond the ordinary to make an impact. Together, we enhance the learning experience and empower students and faculty so we can truly make a difference beyond buildings.
As architects, we understand how space shapes behavior. As educators, you know that considering the needs of the whole person shapes student success. Using space to address the mind, body, and spirit of your students is the difference between just a building and intentional architecture that advances your strategic objectives.

We immerse ourselves in campus culture to find the intersections where great design can propel the university’s work of engaging the whole student — Mind, Body, and Spirit.
Our research and experience point to six elements, that together, create a vibrant and healthy campus culture. These elements build on the unique traditions that set the university apart from its peers.
When students are empowered to engage in the world on their own terms, they’re empowered to change it in thoughtful ways.
STUDENT
CULTURE OF
DISCOVERY
CULTURE OF Learning happens everywhere, but it begins in the classroom. Effective
classrooms adapt to innovative teaching methods. They activate and
engage students, and accommodate small group break out sessions.
Dynamic learning spaces harness the opportunities technology provides,
and foster real time creation, visualization, discovery, and exploration.
CULTURE OF Interior and exterior environments enhance the campus
experience by encouraging a healthy life outside the classroom.
Spaces that promote physical and mental relaxation, social activity,
and a connection to nature support student well-being and create a
grounding sense of place.
CULTURE OF Daring to turn the dreams of childhood into reality takes
development and nurturing. An area of interest, when focused,
can grow into an insatiable desire to seek new realities.
Wonder and inspiration come from many sources, including our
surroundings inside and out.
CULTURE OF As they stretch and find new academic innovations, students are
testing their own value systems—seeking and accepting ideas
from all sources. Students gravitate to spaces where they find
comfort– eating, sleeping, and playing in places that promote a
personal sense of belonging and inclusivity. Life between classes
is enhanced by spaces that promote independent choice, inspire
the imagination, and encourage socialization.
CULTURE OF Setting the stage for exploration, space must engage the mind,
frame moments of contemplation, and inspire curiosity to
question why something is the way it is. Whether cultivating
hidden talents, finding new passions, or discovering unexpected
connections between disparate topics, the efforts outside the
classroom awaken creative energy inside the classroom.
CULTURE OF Whether nurturing an emerging passion through physical
making or advancing applied research, learning through
doing in a social environment blends the physical and
analytical worlds with purpose. Successful spaces actively
engage people and encourage a willingness to share
experimental prototypes for feedback.
GBBN WORKS WITH VISIONARIES TO ENHANCE EXPERIENCE & EMPOWER PEOPLE. WE COMBINE CREATIVE TENACITY, TECHNICAL MASTERY, AND A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE TO DELIVER DESIGN SOLUTIONS THAT HELP OUR CLIENTS ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. TOGETHER, WE SHORTEN THE DISTANCE BETWEEN MEDICAL BREAKTHROUGHS AND PATIENT BEDSIDES, SET STUDENTS UP FOR SUCCESS, CONNECT AUDIENCES AND ARTISTS, AND INSPIRE EMPLOYEES TO DO THEIR BEST WORK. AT GBBN, WE SEE ARCHITECTURE AS MORE THAN JUST BUILDINGS, BECAUSE POSITIVELY IMPACTING PEOPLE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WE DO.
