Scope Of Work

MANZANITA DORMITORY

The New Manzanita Dormitory is the first new undergraduate dormitory built on the Stanford campus in over 20 years and part of an undergraduate housing expansion. The 40,000-square-foot, three-story dormitory provides a new home to 125 undergraduate students, three resident scholars and one Resident Fellow (RF).

The residence features both single and two-room double rooms, a three-bedroom/three-bath RF unit, a large lounge with adjoining kitchenette, study spaces, seminar rooms and a computer cluster which provides collaborative spaces for the students to study and socialize. The project also includes an outdoor plaza for both educational and social events/gatherings.

LAGUNITA COURT ADDITION

The Lagunita Court Addition consists of two 33,000-square-foot buildings to accommodate 200 undergraduate students and two Resident Fellow (RF) units. Both buildings are four-class residences, with one-room singles, traditional doubles and two-room doubles.

The project scope includes appropriate program space, shared gender-neutral restrooms, furnishings, finishes, kitchenette and laundry room. A large lounge with adjoining kitchenette and exterior patio provides an ideal setting for social gatherings and academic activities. Study spaces, seminar rooms and a computer cluster/group-learning space with standard supportive technologies will provide further collaborative spaces for students to study and socialize.
