Fourth year students bring Rome to Cambridge and Toronto

The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ School of Architecture class of 2025 recently staged two exhibitions of work created during the Fall 2024 term in Rome.

The class was proud to reaffirm our long-standing Presence in Rome with an exhibit of our design projects, sketches, photographs and videos. Through it, they conveyed the lasting impact of our temporary stay in Rome, the most layered of cities, where ancient buildings and urban armatures are inhabited by a modern people. As foreign student designers, they explored a reciprocal approach to these spaces, striving to take in the rich history of the land, while providing our own unique perspective.  

Special thanks to the hosts of the exhibition, Fabrik Architects in Cambrdige and 50 Gristmill Lane in the Distillery District, Toronto.
