The Department of Architecture at Weitzman is partnering with Surface Media, publisher of Surface, the 27-year-old American magazine of global contemporary design, to launch Surface Summer School at Penn, a design challenge and competition.

The challenge will invite Weitzman students to respond to a brief for architectural and design solutions for a mobile medical testing unit for COVID-19. The winner of the competition will be profiled in Surface magazine and will be eligible for an internship with the publication at a later date.

Surface Summer School at Penn will feature weekly lectures linked from the magazine’s homepage, made available to both Penn students and the public and led by The Super Jury which will work in collaboration with Surface. 

Details for each lecture will be announced on the day of the event on surfacemag.com
