The new Siebel Center for Design (SCD) features 45,000 square feet of space designed to apply the concept that collaborative spaces can spark creativity, new ideas and dynamic learning

The facility features collaboration studios, gallery space, an amphitheater, workshops, tool shops and even a garage.

The outdoor spaces celebrate nature, weaving together birch, oak, and pine trees with surrounding native flowers and grasses, all surrounding three terraces

The new Siebel Center for Design at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign is a pioneering, ground-up design school fostering an interdisciplinary approach to human-centered design. The thoughtful use of glazing maximizes the benefits of natural light for the health, wellbeing and creativity of students and faculty. Rising gracefully from a prominent campus green space, an airy pavilion is clad in SunGuard™ SNX 51/23 coating on clear glass, supplemented with IS 20 interior surface coating for enhanced thermal insulation. With a phenomenal light-to-solar gain ratio SNX 51/23 helps achieve generous levels of transparency and natural light while limiting glare and solar heat gain. The project is LEED® Gold certified and is recognized as an inspiring campus destination.
