🍂 A little creativity, a lot of texture, and a touch of Fall & Halloween magic! Our Residential and Design Communications Interior Design students explored the materials library to create fall or Halloween inspired flat lays, experimenting with colors, patterns, and textures to bring their design visions to life. 🎃👻

Yesterday, Mikayla Rea’s PABS (Principles of Architecture & Building Systems) class toured a site at UCA with Danielle Barron, Director of Planning, Design and Construction.
