First-year environmental design students at Texas A&M explore the relationship between geometry and architecture in “The Power of Limits: The Translation From Geometry to Architectural Space” at the university’s Memorial Student Center [Stark Galleries] (https://www.google.com/maps/place/J+Wayne+Stark+University+Center+Gallery/@30.612428,-96.343442,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x86468ff1d02902af:0xe2ed890cb12303ff!8m2!3d30.612428!4d-96.341248) through March 24, 2017.

An exhibit reception featuring the student designers is scheduled 4:30 – 6 p.m. Tuesday, March 7.

The pieces were created in fall 2015, spring 2016 and fall 2016 studios led by Negar Kalantar and Alireza Borhani, faculty members in the [Department of Architecture] (http://dept.arch.tamu.edu) .

Students fabricated their designs, ranging from 3-D printed pieces to medium-scale interlocking vaulted, concrete prototypes, at the College of Architecture [Woodshop] (http://www.arch.tamu.edu/inside/services/woodshop/) and the [Automated Fabrication and Design Lab] (https://fablab.arch.tamu.edu) at the Texas A&M [RELLIS Campus] (http://tees.tamu.edu/research/facilities/rellis/) .
