The Centennial College A Building is a celebration of the Mi’kmaq concept of "Two-Eyed Seeing" which harmonizes Indigenous wisdom and Western perspectives. The design of the interior centers on inspiring innovative thinking while allowing the building to be the primary storyteller. As Canada’s first LEED Gold, net-zero carbon, WELL certified, mass timber, higher-education facility it exemplifies an unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability and social responsibility.
