The Duke University Brodhead Center for Campus Life, formerly the historic West Campus Union, is the major cornerstone of the Duke Campus. Fully modernized, with glass, the high-ceilinged, day-lit hall includes a variety of dining venues where faculty, students, staff, and alumni can meet for planned or impromptu interactions.

The architects, for the Richard H. Brodhead Center, preserved the integrity of the 1920s design, restoring the historic structure while also building a modern glass-centric atrium at Duke University. The facility features diverse dining venues and student life spaces of many scales. The design of the “interior street,” which blends new and old and was instrumental in defining the ambitions of the student life spaces, was developed in collaboration with Duke’s stakeholders and the student body.
