Jury Comments: "We commend here that rare achievement of a massive set of buildings delivered with great respect for human scale - recalling a bunch of sheds in a field, drawing together the learning community and protecting their communal experience while retaining its connection to the world outside. We particularly admired the integration of interior and exterior spaces highly responsive to available light, just what we seek in the Northwest. Skillful site planning also succeeds in creating a commuter campus that accommodates cars while promoting pedestrian circulation. Design professionals will appreciate the second- or third-generation references to the modernist language of Charles Moore and Edward Larrabee Barnes, which really shows its adaptability in this design."
