2007 Arcc Spring Research Conference

Architectural research investigates issues related to the physical, aesthetic, and social aspects of the built environment, including the well-being of its inhabitants. Architectural education promotes the understanding of principles, concepts and lessons learned from practice and architectural research. In practice, designers and clients exchange a variety of ideas, problems, strategies, and solutions. Ultimately, we seek ways to link research and practice to the classroom so that our students will become better stewards of the environment. This year's theme, "Green Challenges" offers a venue for participants to present research issues that help move architectural education to a greener and sustainable future. The conference is open to a diversity of topics yet focused on current research, innovations, programs, and activities.
