Celebrating the accomplishments of our professors, UTSOA’s faculty studio features dive into the dynamic firms and individual practices that shape their expertise inside and outside the university.

Our second feature is Alterstudio Partner Kevin Alter.

Led by Senior Lecturer Robert Stepnoski (@robertstepnoski), the 2025 Summer course “Robots for Architecture” explored robotic automation in architectural design and fabrication using KUKA robots.

Our faculty are known for their expansive professional practices that extend beyond the university, so we’re kicking off a new series to feature the research and design work of our wonderful professors.

A little quiet before the next creative storm. Two months down, two to go—see you in August. 🗓️

Even in an increasingly digital profession, hands-on fabrication remains a cornerstone of design education.

Have you seen Goldsmith Hall's Living Wall lately? It’s thriving. 🌿

Designed to attract native fauna and test the boundaries of green wall systems, the Living Wall is a research project years in the making—part art, part architecture, part ecology.

What happens when local decision-makers and academic subject-matter experts come together to tackle some of Texas’ most urgent planning and design challenges?
