Words from the Architects

This is a major phase of the ASU South Campus Residential Master Plan and is the keystone building located on the southeast edge of Arizona State University. The complex is intended to create a new entry threshold to the university, where campus and community come together. The academic village establishes facilities for both living and learning, mixing dormitory rooms with classroom, computing, and tutoring space.

Two existing campus malls weave into the site to form an outdoor village common courtyard. The Hassayampa Academic Village interlaces 1,900 beds with classroom, computing, dining and retail components. The buildings are organized as a series of 4 story courtyard buildings sharing a public gallery space with a 7-story tower.

The towers flank the primary east-west and north-south connections to campus and serve as thresholds to the gallery spaces with their entries to the residential buildings. Each of these buildings is comprised of 4 floors of 40 student communities sharing a social lounge with the adjoining floor. Together, the 4 floors of student suites gain a shared identity through the color of their respective courtyard elevations, thereby promoting an individual identity for each building within the life of the academic village.
