They will construct more efficient, resilient, and healthy buildings within our future cities. They will become our civic leaders, design directors, and community advocates. How we educate these students will have a lasting impact on our city, our neighborhoods, and the spaces in which we live, work, learn, and play."  

The project exhibited by Moore students was an interdisciplinary project between Interior Design Studio IV and Graphic Design Typography IV. They worked on a menswear Pop-Up shop project. Ashley Adams' Diesel menswear design was on display, with the logo/tag/shopping bag design by Graphic Design student Kimberly IshmaelGabrielle Schreiber's Burberry menswear design was complemented by work from Graphic Design student Trish Thompson.
