Gain insight into the design and development of Academic Building One at Virginia Tech’s Campus, an architectural and academic milestone in Northern Virginia. This presentation will explore how intentional design, sustainability strategies, and a forward-looking academic vision came together to shape the first building on the 3.5-acre campus, originally envisioned as part of the Commonwealth’s successful bid for Amazon HQ2. Learn how the project team pursued ambitious goals for carbon neutrality, urban integration, and the creation of a dynamic environment for the next generation of tech leaders.
Join the George Washington Chapter of Lambda Alpha International (LAIGW) at the offices of SmithGroup, Washington DC for a networking happy hour featuring an insightful presentation on Virginia Tech’s new Campus, designed by SmithGroup.
