From the 2024 Educational Interiors Showcase: McPherson College, Campus Commons

The new Campus Commons at McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas, will provide for the college’s growing physical needs and create a symbolic new “front door” for the campus. The atrium space unifies all three floors of the structure with ample natural light and glass elevators; it has vintage historic cars on display to celebrate the college’s one-of-a-kind automotive restoration program. The ground floor will consist primarily of the college’s new dining facility, and the upper floors will house a flexible student collaboration space; consolidated office spaces for enrollment services, student affairs, and the president’s office and dean’s suite.
