Congratulations to Rice Architecture students Will Letchinger and Jonathan Wilkinson, who were recently named as recipients of the 2019 AIA COTE Top Ten for Students Competition for their project, Après le Déluge, from John Casbarian and Nicholas Gilliland’s Fall 2018 Paris Totalization studio. The competition, held by the American Institute of Architects Committee on the Environment (AIA COTE) in partnership with the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA), recognizes ten exceptional studio projects that integrate creative and innovative design strategies working towards achieving carbon-neutral operations through daylighting, passive heating and cooling systems, sustainable materials, water conservation, energy generation, and other sustainable systems. The program challenged students to submit projects that use a thoroughly integrated approach to architecture, natural systems, and technology to provide design solutions that protect and enhance the environment.
