Contractor Selected to Build $41M Design and Innovation Building at UCSD

BNBuilders was recently selected by the University of California, San Diego (California) to construct its new Design and Innovation Building. The $41-million facility will emphasize collaborative workspace to encourage new ideas, products and services that contribute to UCSD’s entrepreneurial spirit. The new Design and Innovation Building is one of several projects BNBuilders is undertaking for the university.

The new Design and Innovation Building at UCSD will be a 74,000-square-foot building situated at the south edge of the existing Structural and Materials Engineering Building, and just north of the future Light Rail Transit station. The building will contain numerous workspaces that can be easily reconfigured to host programs, meetings, multidisciplinary instruction and studio learning to enhance the collaborative and innovative activities which are distributed across the campus.

The new building was designed by EHDD. Construction is anticipated to start in summer or fall 2019 and complete in 18 months.
