L Gale Lemerand Student Center, Daytona State College
Design: ikon.5 architects

Addressing a long-standing campus planning challenge of expansive parking lots and inactive building frontages along the public boulevard, the design introduces an organically curving stone and bronze wall that redefines the institution’s presence and identity at the street edge.
The sculptural form extends outward like welcoming arms, embracing visitors while shaping a generous landscaped lawn that establishes a memorable and inviting arrival experience. Beyond creating a stronger visual identity, the intervention organizes circulation and clearly defines a legible point of campus entry.
Through the integration of landscape, architecture, and public space, the project transforms what was once a fragmented and utilitarian edge condition into a cohesive civic frontage—one that enhances accessibility, strengthens campus character, and fosters a more engaging relationship with the surrounding urban environment.
