Studio Louisville will host an opening reception for its Fall 2021 project focused on the Preston Corridor of Louisville on Wednesday, Dec. 15. From 3-6:30 p.m., guests are invited to attend the reception at the Healthful City Design Studio on the second floor of the Republic Building at 429 W Muhammad Ali Blvd, Louisville.

In Fall 2021, a multidisciplinary group of graduate and undergraduate students from architecture, interiors, landscape architecture, geography, and urban design worked with a team of professional planners and consultants to analyze the diverse spatial qualities of the Preston Corridor and propose a series of multiscalar design interventions that align with the priorities of stakeholder groups represented in various planning documents. Focusing on issues of social equity, healthy environments, and climate justice, the exhibition assembles the student research and design work and invites visitors to engage in conversation about the possibilities for Preston Corridor.

Studio Louisville is a collaborative design studio at the University of Kentucky that treats design as a lever for promoting a healthier and more just future for Louisville and Jefferson County.
