This exquisite stone-clad #masstimber Dining Hall at Swarthmore College was completed in 2023. It drew inspiration from the landmark Sharples facility that had served the college since 1964. This had become too small and was no longer able to meet the culinary needs of an increasing number and diversity of students from North America and well over 30 countries. The Architects, DLR Group, in design partnership with Rayford W Law AIA NCARB LEED AP BD+C, sought perspectives and insights through an in-depth 360-degree engagement process, which included 55 meetings with various stakeholders and 505 interviews with a diverse cross-section of the student demographic. The result is a goose-bump inducing blend of steel, wood, stone, and glass that forms a unique typology drawn directly from collective experiences. The black steel connections on the hefty #glulam beams help to provide a timeless elegance that ties modern convenience with a deep cultural heritage. Designed as a cornerstone for social gathering and meals on campus, the 800-seat dining hall offers 10 robust food platforms, including allergy-aware, vegan, and international. Retail dining is also catered for as a late-night option. Various sustainable design solutions meet the college’s desire for high energy efficiency, the use of on and off-site renewable energy, zero waste options, biophilic design, and local food sourcing.
