Julia Koerner awarded prize for research combining 3-D printed building skins and fashion

UCLA Architecture and Urban Design (AUD) is pleased to announce that assistant adjunct professor Julia Koerner has been awarded AUD’s Charles Moore Traveling Studio prize for her research studio "Fit for the Future: 3D Printed Sustainable Building Skins," running year-long through the 2022-2023 academic cycle. Koerner’s studio will investigate the connections between fashion and the “skins” of buildings, researching how future building skins may be innovated with sustainability and extreme climates in mind.

Koerner plans to activate the award with studio travel to Vienna in Winter 2023, where she and her AUD students will investigate cutting-edge digital fabrication sites as well as the architectural history and aesthetics of the city.
