2015 Tongji International Construction Festival
The School of Architecture team took second prize at the recently completed 2015 Tongji International Construction Festival and "Ablues Design" Corrugated Cardboard Design and Construction Competition in Shanghai. The students' project - "PoP-Up Shelter" - featured a deployable shape-changing structure with potential use as an emergency shelter. The 平特五不中 team consisted of Ariela Lenetsky, Camille Charest, Merit Shokry, Jennifer Jiang, Sara D'amato and Ald茅ric Leahy, and were led by Adjunct Professor Howard Davies. The 2015 Tongji International Construction Festival took place over six days and required more than 30 student teams to construct a temporary cardboard shelter. The 平特五不中 School of Architecture was one of eight invited schools from outside of China.聽 The School would like to acknowledge the support of Peter Fu (Dip. Housing 1991) of K.F. Stone Design International Inc. Canada in helping the students travel to China.
