At the intersection of architecture, preservation, and design, INTAR takes an innovative approach to the reuse and transformation of existing buildings, by investigating issues of conservation, exhibition design, retail, and domesticity. This year 26 students, graduating from our three Master’s Programs, have contributed to the Grad Show with their thesis projects in adaptive reuse, exhibition design, and narrative environments. Their proposals express a multifaceted range of research interests, design strategies, and architectural vocabularies, which perfectly describe INTAR’s mission and values.
