Patricia Lipoma Kraft and Jonathan A. Kraft Hall for Social Sciences

Kraft Hall for Social Sciences opened in 2019 and is the home of the Rice School of Social Sciences. The first floor serves as the public face of the building with five state-of-the-art classrooms, student lounges, and a collaborative event space, while the upper floors serve as the offices for the faculty, staff, and graduate students. An inner courtyard blends fields of native plantings with areas for informal gatherings beneath a verdant canopy of river birch trees, transforming Rice University’s traditional formal courtyard pattern into a dynamic and productive ecological system.
