Renovation of the Indiana University Visitor Center
Renovation of the Indiana University Visitor Center
Existing Visitor Center
This partner project involved interviewing the manager of the Indiana University Visitor Center to discover that she envisioned the new space to be timeless, yet on trend with technology. My partner and I developed a concept of A Gateway to Experience IU, based on the iconic Sample Gates that welcome students onto campus.
A Gateway
supportive structure
lead someone into a new space.
A gateway never closes, allowing alumni to always come back
welcoming to everyone
possibility and new beginnings.
We knew that our three main groups of visitors to this space, prospective students, current students, and alumni would benefit the most by interacting and sharing stories with each other, which is how we came to our concept of one multi-media interactive center. This is the focal point of the space. It serves many purposes. It welcomes the visitor, invites them to share their memories, and informs them about activities, majors, and the history of Indiana University. Most of these panels involve touch screens for a dynamic interactive experience. A few also include traditional white boards. See more details about the boards below.
