14 THE MONTANA ARCHITECT | 2018 | www.aia-mt.org • Sarah Morgan Nix, a student in Sherrill Baldwin-Halbe’s interior design course, placed second in the Interior Design Educators Council (IDEC) 2017-2018 Student Design Competi- tion for her project, Inhale Exhale Spatial Textile Design, which showcased her exploration of texture, color lighting and shape. • A remarkable 19 undergraduate and two graduate students had either an observation drawing or design drawing accepted to the 2018 Design Communication Association Juried Draw- ing Exhibition at Cornell University, receiving an Award of Distinction for each piece. Faculty submitting these student drawings were Professors Henry Sorenson Jr., Maire O’Neill Conrad, Christopher Livingston and Steve Juroszek. • Additionally, Professors Henry Sorenson Jr., Christopher Livingston and Steve Juroszek received Awards of Distinction for the observation or design drawings they submitted for the exhibition. Chris Livingston received a Juror’s Award for his observation drawing, Radcliffe Camera – Three Stoppages and Steve Juroszek received an Award of Excellence for the best in category in Faculty Observation Drawing for his St. Peter’s Basilica Panorama shown below. • Professor Zuzanna Karczewska completed her sabbatical research with a SOA Gallery showing of her studies exploring a sense of place as communicated through the weaving of local wools, color drawn from local plant sources and interactions with rocks and local streams. Her stunning and provocative work has already been selected for exhibition at the Emerson Center for the Arts and the Holter Museum of Art. Lastly, the SOA Advisory Council met recently on campus charged with addressing the future of architectural practice and its implicai- tons for the future of architectural education. This initial discussion will be followed shortly with a survey to all members of the AIA asking for your insights into these two interrelated isssues. Please take time out from your daily tasks and responsibilities to reflect on your practice. How has it changed and where to you see the profes- sion in the near and distant future? How did your education serve you and how might education serve the next generation of architects and the generations that follow. I look forward to hearing from you as we in the School of Architecture continue to enrich our teaching and research to serve the State, the Region, and the practice of archi- tecture everywhere. b Continued from page 13
