The University of Illinois Alumni Association selected BLDD to design a new alumni center for the Urbana-Champaign campus. Public areas include a reception gallery, library, lounge and great room, student areas, and banquet facilities for up to 224 guests. The Center’s offices, conference rooms, and executive board room accommodate the Alumni Association. The spacious gallery and display areas exhibit U of I memorabilia, linking new and prospective students and their families with the traditions of Illinois.
This facility reflects the U of I’s stature as one of the world’s leading universities with one of the largest alumni membership organizations in the nation.

The Student Center is a student services and amenities building at the center of four existing classroom buildings on the Illinois Central College Peoria Campus in Peoria, IL.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Old Main is not only an icon on Augustana College’s Rock Island campus, but it's also home to Liberal Arts department, classrooms, and office spaces.
To bring visual awareness and access to Student Services, an addition was created bringing life to an underused facility, connecting it through the library, and allowing the space to become a resource for more students.
