FAMU 800 Bed Dormitory - DAG has recently developed, as part of a design-build team, designs for new dormitory facilities at Florida A & M University.  The facility is intended to create a new campus gateway and promote positive patterns for future campus development. Based on a mixed use model, the design includes approximately 800 beds, several community rooms on each floor, and provides university use spaces at ground level.   Besides the spaces contained within the buildings, the buildings themselves shape a series of courtyard spaces culminating in a central plaza envisioned to become a hub of campus activities.  These exterior spaces coupled with a large green space behind the dormitory provide great opportunities for student interaction and campus events.
