Cal Poly showcases students’ architecture designs

Cal Poly’s College of Architecture and Environmental Design will showcase architectural designs by students on campus this week.

The National Conference on the Beginning Design Student is free and open to the public.

Projects will be displayed 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday in various campus galleries, including the University Art Gallery in the Dexter Building (No. 34) and the Berg Gallery and the Main Lobby Gallery in the Architecture and Environment Design Building (No. 5).

Additionally, an interactive outdoor display from Friday to Sunday will highlight first-year students’ paraSITE projects, which are structures that are attached to the exterior of the architecture building.

The paraSITE program involves the work of more than 70 teams of architecture and architectural engineering students.
