The Design and Media Center is a building of the Massachusetts College of Art and Design in Boston, on the city's Avenue of the Arts. Ennead Architects designed it and finished it in 2016. Its materials are glass, steel and concrete, and Walsh Brothers served as construction manager.

The architects say the center gives the college a new identity and entrance along the Avenue of the Arts. It connects all of the college's adjacent buildings for the first time and improves campus accessibility. Susan T. Rodriguez was design partner, and Charles Brainerd was project architect for design.

Inside, an atrium, a lobby and a walkway above the atrium organize the interior. The design aims to enhance the quality of collaborative teaching spaces and to reveal the vitality of the art and design work inside. The architects list sustainability among the project's themes but give no details.
