Bath Studio 2009

University of Notre Dames School of Architecture students took part in a summer studio in Bath, England in 2009. Architecture students studied traditional and classical architectural forms and donated a series of plans, water color drawings and renderings to the city of Bath, contributing to the citys efforts to accommodate urban growth while retaining the citys assets.

these designs are stunning and i would love to see this type of development in Bath.

It is what Bath deserves as such a gorgeous historical gem.

I moved to Bath 5 years ago as its beauty inspired me (as an art student) and lover of aesthetics.

I would donate monthly to see these designs implemented.

Unfortunatley the designs that have been approved for the Weston Riverside Development brings me to tears. They are hideous. it will destroy the character and spirit of the city :(

All I can say is THANK YOU for doing what you're doing. The students have so much talent, and you and they have decided to keep a town's look together rather than ravage it with metallic- and concrete-clad bland boxes or showy "Guggenheims" tossed around.

My guess is that most architects will hate what you're doing. Making a town look "traditional" is a no-no. A building built now in Tokyo and Athens should look identical. "Region/Location" plays no part whatsoever in what they build.
