Students’ designs could infuse new life into Colombian seaport
As part of a School of Architecture studio, students spent a week in Barranquilla, Colombia, visiting residents in some of the city’s informal settlements and oldest neighborhoods. They returned to the Coral Gables Campus to begin designing structures that could help revitalize those areas and address the impacts of climate change.
