"Reunion’s concept is to create a space that acknowledges the importance of gatherings in a setting of nature, which allows for both personal reflection and for enjoyment of the environment. The green space is called Reunion, and the theme is "Rock + Paper + Shovel" which connotes a place of both playfulness and refection. I want visitors to explore the relationships of the forms, lines, space, and their connection to Notre Dame campus as an institution and the history of the location."
