2024 EX-CHANGE Exhibition On View
EX-CHANGE 2024–1905, exhibition designed by Phillip Denny (B.Arch '14).
Carnegie Mellon Architecture is pleased to announce the launch of its annual showcase of student work, EX-CHANGE. The book and exhibition titled 2024–1905 was designed and edited by Phillip Denny (B.Arch ’14). Every year the EX-CHANGE book and exhibition shine new light on the school’s research and pedagogy; this edition is about encountering the past. The school has been shaped and reshaped by generations of students and faculty. Every member of this community has occupied our spaces, and each has helped carry the school forward into the present. This project is an attempt to connect then and now.
The exhibition is on view August 26 to September 15, 2024 in the College of Fine Arts Great Hall.
Join us for the 2024 EX-CHANGE Celebration + Welcome Back Event on Friday, September 13, 2024 from 5-7pm. The event features remarks by the design team and a chance to pick up a copy of the book.
The book will be available by request, free of charge, while copies last.

Every year the EX-CHANGE book and exhibition shine new light on the school’s research and pedagogy; this edition is about encountering the past. Founded in 1905 as the Department of Applied Design, Carnegie Mellon Architecture now resides in two buildings: the College of Fine Arts and Margaret Morrison Carnegie Hall, both designed by the school’s founder, Henry Hornbostel (1867-1961). Here, the lessons of the past are set in stone: the plans of architectural monuments are embedded in the marble floor of the Great Hall, and the murals on its ceiling present a panoramic view of a historical canon. While these buildings have hardly changed over the last hundred years, the school has been shaped and reshaped by generations of students and faculty. Every member of this community has occupied these spaces, and each has helped carry the school forward into the present. This project is an attempt to connect then and now.
