Stanford Medical School: Campus Plan

Working with ZGF and NBBJ Architects, TLS developed an overall plan for campus growth and future open space for the newly emerging Medical School Campus. The site has been a peripheral area of campus, home to large parking lots for the Stanford Hospital. Now the Medical School is experiencing a rapid urbanization, fueled particularly by lab construction, at a density similar to the existing quads within the original core. The plan creates a tight, quad-like concentration of program and identity for the school which is strongly joined to the original Stanford fabric by a series of movement corridors across Campus Drive. These connectors organize the entire campus internally with a “plaid” of linear spaces of varying scales.
