Links Roundup of the Week: Graduation
by Olivia Chen, 05/15/09
In the midst of a crazy week of exciting design exhibitions, events, and parties, we realized that thousands of students are on the verge of graduation. We truly believe that students provide us with a peek into the future of design, and we were impressed by Pratt’s student booth at Bklyn Designs, as well as their graduating students’ exhibition (look out for upcoming coverage). So this week we wanted to give a shout out to all the architecture, urban planning, industrial design, engineering, landscape architecture, and other design majors who are already pushing the sustainability and design envelope. CONGRATULATIONS to to all!
