SUMMARY:HXD Week: University of Houston RAD Center Tour
DESCRIPTION:University of Houston RAD Center Tour \nStep into the RAD Center’s innovative mass timber structure\, where vertical rhythms and glass façades bring the surrounding woodlands inside. Before the RAD Center\, this site was home to an underground dining facility—a once-bustling student space that was severely damaged during Hurricane Harvey. Our tour will explore this project inside and outward. The design draws inspiration from the surrounding woodlands: vertical timber columns mimic tree trunks\, multi-story overlaps create dynamic spatial connections\, and expansive glass façades reflect and invite in the natural canopy. The result is a space that blurs the line between indoors and out—welcoming students to gather\, dine\, study\, and recharge. During our tour\, attendees will explore this architectural transformation firsthand\, witnessing how thoughtful design can reframe student life and elevate everyday experiences. \nAIA Credit\n1.0 HSW \nParking:\n1) Park at UH Stadium Garage – Visitor Parking (payment required); 3874 Holman St.\, Houston\, TX 77004\n2) Walk across Cullen to Entrance 14\n3) Continue down sidewalks to RAD Center \nSee map HERE.
