(May 22, 2020) — Each year the Faculty in the Department of Architecture collectively honor architecture and interior design students who represent the best of design in their respective year and discipline in our department. The nominees for the Design Awards are selected by respective faculty members and, in typical years, winners are chosen at each level by vote of the faculty. Considering the circumstances of the Spring 2020 semester, the Department of Architecture is honoring all students that were nominated in this year’s process.
