Texas A&M University Zachry Engineering Education Complex & E-Quad
Location: College Station, TX
Client: Texas A&M University, TreanorHL / Ayers Saint Gross
Size: 3.25 Acres
The reimagined Zachry Engineering Building and adjacent Engineering Quad (E-Quad) is a vibrant hub on the Texas A&M campus. Converted from a brownfield site occupied by concrete, outdated structures and back-of-house structure uses, this new 3.25-acre campus green serves as a dynamic space, facilitating opportunities for students to congregate, collaborate, study, dine and relax.
The design of this distinct green space demonstrates the social and ecological benefits of sustainable landscape design. Unique details, from the design of custom lounging plinths to the inclusion of favorite mathematic formulas in the paving, exemplify the design philosophy of putting engineering on display. As the largest academic building on the Texas A&M campus, the Zachry Engineering Education Complex and E-Quad have set a new bar for experiential learning and the formation of the campus community in outdoor space.
