这是由Dake Wells Architecture设计的Davis-Harrington欢迎中心，位于美国密苏里州。建筑按照功能需求主要划分为两层空间，上层为行政办公区，以加强建筑的视觉存在感，从而强化校园边界。该方案考虑了未来扩展的可能性，以重新迁入现状的招生与注册服务设施，提供一站式的新生入学服务。设计师对校园历史和使命有充分的认知，并结合校园的周边环境，设计了该建筑的围护结构体系。建筑首层使用了耐用而又场脉相互协调的石灰石材料，从而提升了北面入口方向的通透性。建筑的东西立面使用了两块悬挂在基座之上的、几乎如纸薄的白色穿孔板，与幕墙形成欢迎手势的角度，迎接游客与新生。阳光透过穿孔板照射入内，照亮整个空间。

The building program is arranged in a two-story scheme, placing administrative functions on an upper level in order to increase the building’s visual presence as it reinforces the campus edge. The scheme considers a future expansion that will relocate existing admissions and registration services to this location, providing a one-stop-shop for new applicants.

The building enclosure is derived from the surrounding campus context combined with an interpretive reading of the institution’s history and mission. Limestone provides a durable and contextual surface at the ground, increasing in transparency to the north toward the entrance. Two white planes are elevated above the base defining the east and west facades, almost paper thin.A two-story curtain wall angled toward the campus entrance serves as a gesture to welcome visitors and increase the building’s transparency. The west plane extends slightly beyond the pointed corner of the building signifying the main entry point to the building and folds slightly away as if dog-earring a page for future reference. Circular perforations derived from the pattern of a composition booklet provides added shade on the west facade and dappled light in the lobby interior. A wall of slate recalling the classroom chalkboard provides the backdrop to the building’s entrance and defines a generous reception desk for student greeters, with a twenty foot maroon and white bear suspended from the structure.

Visitors can experience the University through interactive displays on their own, or participate in a guided tour that begins in the lobby, moves to the presentation, then through the linear gallery and out onto campus. Recognizing the capacity of architecture to both engage and inspire, Missouri State University is strengthening its position in the higher education market while staying true to its mission to educate citizen scholars.
