The Rubenstein Commons at the Institute for Advanced Study(IAS)in Princeton,NJ,established in 1930,is a new commons building on the historic campus.It is sited near the Institute’s flagship 1939 building Fuld Hall where Albert Einstein spent his last thinking years.The design for Rubenstein Commons is driven by the concept of intertwining.Exterior circulation weaves into and through the building.The building is conceived as a social condenser with a variety of flexible meeting spaces supporting community and academic life on the IAS campus.The new building follows the existing topography primarily in a single-level program with gradual slopes and offers views of the courtyards.
