Campus Design Guidelines
The guidelines were developed to present the University's preferences and criteria for the design and construction of campus facilities and landscape.
The goal of the design guidelines is to improve the overall aesthetic character and visual unity of the Amherst campus as a whole. They represent the University's commitment for future buildings to create a more cohesive, attractive, productive and sustainable campus environment.
