UB architecture students add to Silo City’s regenerating landscape

 

The Ecological Practices Graduate Research Group from the UB School of Architecture spent a semester on site at Silo City, next to Rigidized Metals, learning about urban ecology and mapping our campus with Rigidized Metals’ Director of Ecology, Josh Smith. They designed an installation constructed out of our Vipertube enhanced metal tubing. The design was installed by the students with the help of Josh over the last Spring semester. Details on the installation and a story behind the project as a whole, can be found at the link, below:
