The MSUM Foundation worked with Foss Architecture + Interiors to carry out comprehensive design services for a new Alumni Center. The building’s modern design embodies the forward-thinking vision of the university and the MSUM Foundation. Its materials—stone, brick, and glass—harmonize with existing campus architecture, while metal panels inspired by dragon scales celebrate the Dragons and the MSUM identity.
