SPACE PROGRAMMING

As higher education futurists and change agents, our planning projects are solution-oriented and data-driven, linking institutional strategic goals with physical space requirements. Higher education institutions engage us to resolve a variety of planning challenges: optimizing and right-sizing existing campus space, assessing classroom and lab utilization, identifying the nature and quantity of potential new space, creating campus space inventories, and helping institutions become more future-resilient. Escalating demographic challenges and increasing sensitivity to the value proposition, combined with cascading changes wrought by the pandemic, are prompting campuses to re-examine space allocation and utilization.
