He, She, & It.

He, She & It - Davidson Rafailidis

Category: Architecture + Workspace

"He, She & It," designed by architecture professors Stephanie Davidson and Georg Rafailidis, is a collection of three distinct buildings for three spatial needs, collaged into one structure. The 1,400-square-foot building in Buffalo's Parkside neighborhood houses work spaces for a painter ("he") and a ceramist/silversmith ("she"), and a greenhouse (for "it" - seedlings and plants). Each space features a distinctive atmosphere for its respective user. The project engaged several architecture students as interns across all phases, from design to permitting and construction drawing to presentation modeling.

High Living.

High Living - Jin Young Song / DIOINNO ARCHITECTURE PLLC

Category: Unbuilt Residential

Designed by architecture professor Jin Young Song, "High Living" is a set of prefabricated connecting towers made out of re-purposed shipping containers. It is designed as a "radical but realistic cure" to issues of public health, safety and well-being in the Dharavi Slum in Mumbai, India, one of the largest in the world.

Now in its fourth year, the 2016 Architizer A+ Awards is the largest international awards program focused on nurturing the appreciation of meaningful architecture in the world and championing its potential for a positive impact on everyday life. One A+Award Finalist in every category will win a Popular Choice Award based on the number of public votes they receive.
