Studio 804, Educational architecture program at University of Kansas, United States
Studio 804 is an architecture program at the University of Kansas where graduate students design and build complete buildings from start to finish. The students work with real budgets, engineers, and officials to turn their designs into actual structures.
The program started at the University of Kansas School of Architecture and has completed many buildings across Kansas over the years. These structures were all built to high sustainability standards.
The program ties classroom learning to hands-on building work, showing students how design ideas become real structures. This approach shapes how future architects think about their profession.
Some buildings are accessible to visitors, though the program is primarily a learning environment for students. It helps to research the locations of specific projects before visiting since they are scattered across the region.
The program completes one new building each year, incorporating technologies like solar panels, wind turbines, and rainwater systems. This hands-on experience with green technology sets its graduates apart from other architects.
