NYU Tandon School of Engineering, CITE Game Innovation Lab

The Game Innovation Lab is the flagship project of NYU Tandon School of Engineering's "invention, innovation, entrepreneurship" initiative. Within a tight physical envelope, a single space with robust technology and audiovisual infrastructure accommodates classroom, research, and gathering areas designed for maximum flexibility and mobility. The space includes a raised floor, projection capabilities, moveable white board partitions, and flexible, comfortable furnishings. On the exterior, passersby can interact with a 12' wide by 5' high dynamic media display utilizing their smartphones or a touchscreen kiosk. The interior design concept merged the lab—whiteboards, combinable desk surfaces, and ergonomic seating—with the living room, with the goal of creating an academic space that recalls the feel of playing video games at home. The color palette, lounge chairs, and graphics deliberately call attention to this forward-looking space within the more sober surroundings of the 1980s library building.
