Wake Forest University Wellbeing Center

Reynolds Gymnasium, a longstanding workhorse of Wake Forest's main campus, provides a new home for expanded and renovated facilities serving Student Recreation and Wellness, Student Health Services and Women's Volleyball. With its 40,000 GSF expansion, together with significant renovation, this prominent facility allows state-of-the-art programs to be organized with a high degree of transparency creating a visually dynamic experience throughout. Reynolds Gym is a building transformed, and a strong recruiting magnet for students.

This project transforms the 60-year-old Reynolds Gymnasium, a longstanding workhorse of Wake Forest’s Reynolda Campus, and provides a new home for expanded and renovated facilities serving Student Recreation and Wellness, Student Health Services, and Women’s Volleyball. However, it's so much more than a gym. This transformation reflects Wake Forest’s leadership among universities focused on enhancing all aspects of personal wellbeing. The 180,000 square-foot hub for wellbeing triples the amount of fitness space available on campus and features a new lounge space ideal for conversation, relaxation or studying. Reynolds Gym now boasts wide-open spaces and abundant natural light, a welcome change from the original 1950s design.
