Get Lectured: Florida Atlantic University, Fall '24/Spring '25

2024-11-04T12:23:00-05:00

The School of Architecture at Florida Atlantic University is sharing its public speakers and events information for the new academic year as part of our Get Lectured series.

The poster below, designed by the school's Director, Joseph Choma, combines a layered graphic with a series of folded pleats. "The simple symmetrical crease pattern adds a subtle three-dimensional depth, while the graphic design provides another visual depth to complement and contrast with the folds," Choma told Archinect.
