Discover York
With curved wood paneling that “scoops” visitors into the Campus Visit & Tour Centre, Discover York is a welcoming first point of contact for prospective students and their families, designed to leave a warm and lasting impression.
Discover York
Designed to greet prospective students and their family members and provide a touch point for current students seeking general information or directions, Discover York is a high-visibility destination conceived as a portal into campus life.
The curved wood design fills the two-storey volume of the entrance lobby while “scooping” visitors into the centre. The 10-foot-high glazing provides an immediate connection between the lobby and the centre, filling the latter with light.
We specified and tendered all of the furniture and oversaw the implementation of technology and self-serve digital kiosks.
