Abstract

This study examines how Caleb University in Imota, Lagos State, might improve institutional coordination and fortify campus identity through the implementation of a sustainable green campus core and spatial hierarchy. The study looks at the current layout of the campus, emphasizing the connections between the academic, administrative, and social areas as well as the function of the central green areas in promoting interaction, mobility, and institutional unity. In addition to being actual places for instruction, university campuses are also spatial systems that influence identity formation, social interaction, and institutional coordination. The incorporation of sustainable design techniques into higher education settings has been more popular in recent years, especially with the creation of green campus infrastructures and logical spatial organization. The study assesses how hierarchical spatial arrangements improve readability, way finding, functional efficiency, and a greater sense of place by drawing on modern sustainable campus frameworks and spatial configuration concepts. It is anticipated that the results will show how a well-designed green campus core can enhance user experience and strengthen organizational cohesion by acting as both an ecological anchor and a symbolic institutional hub. The study ends with suggestions for spatial planning that are meant to bring sustainability objectives into line with campus identity development and institutional performance. By offering insights to institutions looking to enhance coordination, resilience, and identity through environmentally responsive spatial designs, this research adds to the expanding conversation on sustainable campus design in rising economies.
