51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Architecture was recently awarded the Small Concept Design Merit Award at the World Landscape Architecture for their entry OASIS.
Through the process of this project, students were interactive with one another and local businesses more than ever. The university’s fabrication lab staff and small, local fabrication companies assisted with the development of amenity pieces to meet the project's overall design goals, incorporating a continuous parametric theme that recognizes course material from previous classes as a demonstration of conceptual design theory in practice - creating a dichotomy of the past lessons taught and the future of the school within the site. The amenities designed additionally fulfill resiliency, climate change, and innovation efforts in mind to reflect the goals of the City of Las Vegas masterplan. These were then assembled, by hand, through the efforts of the students.
