Grace College needed an additional residence hall, and was faced with the challenge of building one on a hillside.

The residence hall intentionally looks like a lodge to break away from the traditional collegiate dorm appearance.

The 16,600-sf building features vinyl siding of various sizes on the exterior. This fresh use of affordable materials creates architectural detail at a great value. Inside, a large lounge allows students to socialize and study in comfortable furniture beside a beautiful stone fireplace. An overlooking lounge features a social nook and study nook.

Students hang out in the Grace College Lodge lobby.
