University of North Carolina Student Housing

Where campus feels like your new

home-sweet-home.

In several college towns across the country, luxury apartments are a growing trend giving on-campus housing some stiff competition. The University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill recognized this opportunity to invest in new interior branding and bold graphic updates to encourage on-campus housing as well as instill campus pride.

Phases of design rollo-outs through all the residence halls

Residence halls updated throughout the duration of the project

 

Nine refreshed residence halls were opened to students in August 2016 with plans to update all 31 residence halls over three phases by the Summer of 2017.

With a large amount of interior space to update, sticking to budget – and getting the most impact for it – is crucial. Dimensional Innovations’ expertise in design, fabrication and installation was key to bringing the North Carolina brand to life in a powerful way.
