Graduate Projects is an exhibition showcasing student work across USC Architecture’s graduate programs. Featuring projects from students and recent alumni in Architecture (M.ARCH), Advanced Architectural Research Studies (M.AARS), Building Science (MBS), Heritage Conservation (MHC), and Landscape Architecture + Urbanism (MLA+U), the exhibition highlights the various ways in which graduate students at USC are leveraging design, technology, and media to tackle pressing social, cultural, and environmental issues in the built environment.
The exhibition privileges the various forms of representation—drawings, images, artifacts—that USC students produce as a means to encounter and reimagine our designed world. The works on display offer a snapshot cross-section of design research, from speculative city-making to performative building technologies, the articulation of underrepresented histories to the reimagination of landscapes in the face of ecological crisis. These works exemplify the school’s commitment to design as a practice of transformation and offer insight into the methodologies, provocations, and aspirations of a new generation—one redefining architecture’s role in our collective future.
