Ayers Saint Gross planned and designed a residential village of six buildings to replace and consolidate all first-year housing at Emory University. This campus neighborhood of 1,232 beds aims to enrich the freshman experience by providing shared spaces, including study lounges and kitchens, to encourage friendships among the students. The buildings take advantage of rainwater harvesting and recycling of graywater for toilet flushing and irrigation to offer lessons in sustainability. Students can track rates of energy and water consumption on display monitors in the common spaces.
