Ringling College Project Overview
Ringling College of Art + Design has a growing campus hosting a community of creatives that boasts it is ‘a place to fit in, a place to find your people, a place to find yourself, a place to grow, a place to belong.’ When adding a dormitory to campus, planners developed a network of boardwalks, gathering spaces, and a bridge to integrate with the landscape and architecture. The Decero™ Design features stylish low lying paths intertwine with communal spaces and artistically rise to meet social plazas at various entries. A thin ribbon of handrail floats above a composite deck saturated in modern greys and silver dances with a fluid motion along the path to the bridge. A perfect complement to the modernly cladded structure bending around a courtyard overlooking the bayou. The finished project mirrors the craft of creativity taught throughout the institution’s campus.
