We celebrate 100 cumulative years of architecture at CCA with Interior Design, BArch, and MArch programs turning 50, 35, and 15 respectively. To mark the 35th anniversary of the Bachelor of Architecture program, Peggy Chiang and Tim Perks, early graduates of the program, join David Meckel, founding Director, for a chat about the early days of architecture at CCA(C). And to mark Interior Design’s 50th anniversary, Faculty Emeritus Hank Dunlop will catch up with alumni Gary Hutton and Larry Peifer, current chair Amy Campos, and former chair Katherine Lambert to tell stories about their time learning and teaching at the college and discuss the rapidly changing field of Interior Design, reflecting forward to what it might look like 50 years from now. The stories in this collection are published on the Architecture Division’s new site, Scaffold, marking 100 years of architecture and interior design at CCA by highlighting the work of students, faculty, and alumni.
