Join us for a series of reviews and events listed below, taking place May 7-8 & 11-12, 2020.
System Reboot: 2020 SoA Thesis Exhibition
School of Architecture
Carnegie Mellon University
thesis.soa.cmu.edu
Thesis work by students at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Architecture pushing the boundaries of architecture and urban design.
In a time of crisis, students in the Bachelor of Architecture, Master of Architecture, Master of Urban Design, and Master of Advanced Architectural Design programs address the potential for architecture and urban design to suggest alternative modes of engagement. Thesis projects analyze systemic flows of material, climate, culture, and capital as they identify opportunities for intervention. When the system crashes, it is time to reboot.
See the online exhibition at thesis.soa.cmu.edu.
