Structural Systems features models made this semester in Mark Cruvellier's class that examines the 3D structural systems that are used in buildings — both how they "work" in terms of their mechanical function and how they can be related to conceptual design ideas and form and space-making objectives. On display November 11–22.
The final report from the fall 2018 CRP Land Use, Environmental Planning, and Urban Design Workshop earned a Best Practice/Outstanding Student Project award from the American Planning Association (APA) Upstate New York Chapter.
