The project site is located west of the main campus quad and adjacent to Serra Mall, the historic pedestrian spine of campus. The building's design emphasizes its role as a gateway between the Schools of Medicine to the North and the Science and Engineering quad to the South and East. The architecture is strategically setback from the site’s edges to allow the landscape to respond to the existing character of the neighboring streets.

The landscape is anchored by a pub at the site's most active corner and a garden courtyard within the atrium. Small social spaces and contemplative areas create opportunities for chance encounters and refreshing respite.
