The Â鶹¹ÙÍø Program in Environmental Design has announced the recipient of the 2024 Environmental Design Alumni Awards. This year’s honoree for the Distinguished Alumni Award is Mark Meiser and the Young Designer Award recipient is Kate Sector.

The Creative Labs Center (CLC), one of ENVD’s specialized workshops and studio spaces, has been a hub of activity, hosting thousands of students and countless projects. This summer, however, the CLC welcomed a unique group of residents — a flock of birds.

This fall, ENVD welcomes three new faculty, a postdoctoral associate and three staff members.

Assistant Teaching Professor Jared Arp and Creative Labs Center Coordinator Kiera Cudmore spent much of the summer redesigning the remaining third floor studios while constructing new study spots, maker spaces and lounge seating on the western side of the building.

This past weekend, ENVD hosted its annual new student orientation. Students participated in presentations and activities led by undergraduate education student success staff, ENVD faculty and first-year experience (FYE) student mentors. Welcome, class of 2028! We’re so happy you’re here.

Julianne Ramsey majored in architecture with a minor in leadership, and participated in a two-year INVST Community Program at CU.

The competition was reviewed by Shihomi Kuriyagawa and Emily Urquhart at the City of Â鶹¹ÙÍø Parks and Recreation Department.

Congratulations to this year's Latin Honors recipients!

Lydia Mercante, a distinguished graduate from Long Island, will earn her B.EnvD in sustainable planning & urban design with a minor in business real estate. She believes that the past four years at ENVD have made her into who she is today and taught her who she wants to become.

Outstanding graduate Annie Geoghegan will graduate with a B.EnvD in landscape architecture and a minor in Spanish. Some of her favorite memories are from the nights spent in ENVD working on projects, sharing laughs and yawns with classmates that are now dear friends.
