A big thank you to our monks at St. Benedict’s Abbey for hosting a tactile study of these liturgical jewels of the church. The sophomore class created measured drawings of monstrances, chalices, and ciboria for their architectural rendering course.

This concludes part one of the project rendering: a study of form in shade and shadow. Stay tuned for part two, coming soon to an Instagram feed near you!

Our Senior Capstone studio closed out the semester with an ambitious final: a classical counterproposal for the new primary entrance wing of Wight and Wight’s Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City. Working across a range of classical styles and typologies, each student shaped buildings and landscape into a single coherent narrative.

A special thanks to visiting jurors Bill Heyer and Riccardo Vicenzino, who each lead nationally recognized classical practices, for a rigorous final critique as our seniors prepare for the next chapter, whether in the profession or in graduate school.

Spring junior studio concluded the semester with proposals for two transept chapels for Emmanuel Masqueray’s Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Wichita: one dedicated to Venerable Fr. Emil Kapaun and designed to house his remains, the other to the Holy Family.

Through hand-drafted drawings, architectural rendering, and liturgical study, students explored how classical architecture best shapes devotion, procession, and prayer within the life of the Church.

Many thanks to visiting jurors architects Bill Heyer and Riccardo Vicenzino for their thoughtful critiques and professional insight.
