"The Gatehouse creates a living lab that inhabits ‘the border’ of the university and community. It embodies ideas of transition and integration. Our proposal sees the site as a community hub that contributes to a melting pot of activities that care for the local community, the university population, and the character of place. The proposal uses ideas of integration, adaptive reuse, and the union of technology and tradition to produce spaces that foster innovation."
