As Colgate University prepared to celebrate its bicentennial, it was important that the physical spaces across campus reflect the legacy of one of the nation’s leading liberal arts colleges, while also creating a unifying athletics message to honor and celebrate its rich athletics history.

Working in partnership with the Athletic Department, Global Prairie transformed the physical buildings and facilities to reflect the embodiment of the University’s values and traditions. Our environmental design work included new signage, imagery and murals, all of which tell the story of Colgate’s athletic history with an eye to the future. Marrying its 200-year history with its current commitment to athletic success, we designed spaces that personify the essence of Colgate student athletes for the next generation.
