If these walls could talk: Inside the Saint-Étienne Cathedral

College of Design History of Art and Architecture PhD Candidate, Gabriela Chitwood, was featured in a recent OPRI article discussing the relationship between Toulouse Cathedral and the local population. Built over 500 years, the cathedral was used in a half-built state for many generations between the 13th and 15th centuries. Chitwood's work explores what it is like to inhabit and interact within the space while it is being built.

Finding Comfort in the Details

In the spring of 2023, Rigel Wakil, BArch '24, was talking with his classmate, a Student Ambassador named Honour Colby, about an exciting opportunity. Thanks to the Hart Howerton Fellowship, he earned an opportunity to explore and research traditional Japanese inns, Ryokans, on a planned research trip later that summer. Close to a year later, Wakil returned to the College of Design and presented his findings to the School of Architecture & Environment (SAE).
