An energetic makeover for student space

The Morewood Gardens common space for students required a makeover in order to make it more friendly and inviting, and help evoke a sense of pride in CMU.

The design team in University Commuications & Marketing developed a design that would preserve the historical elements of CMU, display more contemporary CMU accomplishments and use a warmer, brighter color pallet.

Upon completion, this inspiring, thought-provoking, high-energy space became a favorite among students and generated high demand for residential space in Morewood Gardens.
