WSU Cultural Center: "How are you going to build this?"

Elson S. Floyd Cultural Center, named in memoriam for the late visionary president of Washington State University, stands at the campus entrance as a statement of inclusion. It celebrates four underrepresented people groups while creating an environment that melds with the surrounding hills of the Palouse. This building represents so much to so many. Its legacy is far more than the free-form roof. As an alum, this project was special — part homecoming and part awe. What struck home for all of us on the design team was the passing of Dr. Floyd during the design-build selection process.

Geometry Rules on the Palouse

When architects at GGLO Design set out to design the new Elson S. Floyd Cultural Center at Washington State University, they had a number of goals: bring the university’s diverse cultural organizations together under one roof, incorporate natural building materials native to the area into the structure, and build something that would pay special tribute to a revered university president who died too soon.
