BellarminCollege预科学校位于圣何塞历史悠久的学院公园附近。自1925年以来，校园一直是社区的焦点。在总体规划设计阶段，学校与社区协会和其他当地利益攸关方举行了会议，以确保新项目符合当地情况。

Bellarmine College Preparatory is located in the historic College Park neighborhood of San José. Operating in this location since 1925, the campus has long been a focal point for the community. During the master plan design phase, the school held meetings with the neighborhood association and other local stakeholders to ensure that the new projects fit into the local context.

索布拉托人文艺术中心将是校园中最高的建筑，因此为了减轻邻居们对建筑高度的担忧，它位于工地最看不见的地方，以帮助保留街区的一层和两层楼的特色。另一个值得关注的问题是控制学生在附近的接送和下车，因此这座建筑的位置可以帮助学生到达特定的地点，并限制邻近房产的汽车流量。

The Sobrato Center for Humanities and the Arts will be the tallest building on campus, so to alleviate neighbors’ concern about building heights, it was located in the least visible portion of the site to help retain the one- and two-story character of the neighborhood. Of additional concern was the control of student pick-up and drop-off in the neighborhood, so the building was positioned to help funnel students to specific points, and limit automobile traffic for adjacent properties.

为满足不断变化的教育需求，该大楼采用了强大的技术基础设施。这座大楼被硬连线和无线网络完全覆盖。每个教室和实验室空间都配备了智能平台，以适应个性化的教学风格。剧院控制室提供完全的广播和录音功能，可用于讲座、演讲和电影。数字制作工作室(绿色屏幕室)用于在校园网站上播放信息和新闻。广播室是通过校园广播电台进行教学的。这个耗资3000万美元的设施拥有440个座位的剧院，为校园提供了一个适合多学科学习的场所。

A robust technology infrastructure was incorporated into the building to meet changing educational needs. The building is completely covered by both hard-wired and wireless networks. Each classroom and lab space is equipped with smart podiums to allow for individual teaching styles. The theater control room offers full broadcast and recording capabilities that can be used for lectures, presentations, and movies. The digital production studio (green screen room) is used to broadcast information and news on the campus website. The radio broadcast room is used for teaching via the campus radio station. The $30 million facility’s 440-seat theater provides the campus with a venue appropriate for learning opportunities from multiple disciplines.

索布拉托中心的设计受到现有校园结构的直接影响。前入口处的立柱的使用和索菲特/地板线的使用直接关系到邻近的利卡多中心。学术翼的外部循环让人想起卡尼科学中心位于校园四合院对角线上。使用光滑的石膏和颜色也有助于将建筑融入校园。大楼正在等待LEED银牌认证。

The Sobrato Center’s design was directly influenced by existing campus structures. The use of a plinth at the front entry and the soffit/floor lines relate directly to the adjacent Liccardo Center. The exterior circulation on the academic wing is reminiscent of the Carney Science Center located diagonally across the campus quadrangle. The use of smooth plaster and color also helps integrate the building into the campus. The building is pending LEED Silver certification.

三个校园小组为索布拉托中心的规划和发展作出了贡献：
