UC Hastings College of the Law
CAMPUS MASTER STRATEGY AND IMPROVEMENTS
Optimizing an expanding foot print for growth within the campus' tight urban constraints.
UC Hastings College of the Law is situated on a multi-building campus in the heart of San Francisco. MKThink began its engagement with the school with a five-year institutional master plan that holistically examined the campus buildings and their integration into the surrounding downtown area. MKThink has gone on to create design guidelines and detailed campus programming. This work has enabled UC Hastings to secure state funding and realize goals outlined by the institutional master plan both under the budget of about $55M and ahead of schedule.
