Cal Poly Pomona Student Services Building
The new Student Services building is highly visible when arriving on campus. The organic nature and shape of the building along with the landscaped berms aim to mimic the surrounding foothills and create the impression that the building is growing out of the landscape. A central promenade serves as a major campus circulation corridor offering gathering and breakout areas for students, visitors and staff. A “hidden” courtyard and smaller spaces offer informal gathering for functions, students, or tour groups. A linear stormwater feature with integrated seating helps break up the large scale between the buildings and is channeled to a vegetated bioswale that treats all stormwater onsite including building runoff.
