Facilities

A large, well-lit art studio with long tables covered in paper, art supplies, models, and sketches. Decorations and craft materials are scattered around, and large windows line one wall, letting in natural light.

Studio Spaces

We have state of the art equipment throughout our facilities to serve all our student’s design needs.  Each student enrolled in a upper division studio class will have 24/7  secure access to a flexible work space with carpeting donated by Acousti Engineering Company of Florida and chairs designed by Herman Miller. Each of the four studio spaces are equipped with projectors, lockers, plotter, printer, rendering computer with Wacom interactive display, scanner and pin up space. Use of the equipment (including printing and plotting) is included within the student’s course registration fee.

Fine Arts Library

The library has recently created discipline-specific search pages so that students can easily access information pertinent to their field. The Architecture & Fine Arts Library provides students access to 85,000 bound volumes, 640 periodicals, 200 videotapes and 40,000 microforms focusing on the history, theory and practice of architecture, art, graphic design and building construction. It also features online linkage to the Avery Index, computer and laser disc access to the Avery Drawing Collection, and a rare book collection.

Concrete courtyard with large banners for Architecture, Sustainability & Built Environment, and Interior Design. Sunlit sculptures and models are displayed under the building’s overhang.

Jonathan and Melanie Antevy Hall (Architecture Building)

Our location inside of the College of Design, Construction and Planning allows for interaction with other units within the college both socially and in courses.

A gallery room displays numerous abstract architectural models made of wood and clear materials on tables, with similar sketches and diagrams covering the walls in the background.

DCP Gallery

Our gallery is host to many events for the students throughout the year. From displaying student work to research symposiums, it is a interdisciplinary meeting place for the College of Design, Construction and Planning.

FabLab

With the Art and Architecture Fabrication Laboratory, or A² Fab Lab, students and faculty alike have more opportunities to explore new ways of creating. Located in the Infinity Hall, the lab currently houses four primary technologies – laser cutters, Water-jet, 3D printing and a 3-axis full sheet CNC Router, each of which provides different ways of bridging between the physical and digital realm; from ideation to creation.

A modern study lounge with students working at tables and on laptops. Some sit on couches, others at desks, all engaged in group or solo study. The room has bright lighting, orange chairs, and glass-walled meeting rooms.

Media:Scape Learn Lab

The LearnLab breaks down the traditional barriers of teacher-to-student lecture rooms. Essentially, learning is no longer a one-way transmission from faculty to student, but emerges as collaboration among students with the professor as a guide. The room is made up of four media:scape tables each mounted with two flat panel displays and a web camera. There are also four LCD projectors and whiteboards—magnetic white dry erase boards—on every wall, an advanced learning environment for this millennium.

A modern, brightly lit office space with cubicles, ergonomic chairs, large windows, a whiteboard, and a wall-mounted TV screen. The room has clean lines and neutral colors with orange accents.

Graduate Student Hub

A research space for graduate students and faculty to collaborate or work independently.

A well-lit workshop with woodworking machines, tools, and scraps of wood on a large central worktable surrounded by benches and equipment. The room has concrete floors and fluorescent lighting.

Wood Shop

The UF College of Design, Construction and Planning’s fully equipped wood shop affords students a cutting edge in manipulating materials and form. A learning laboratory, the wood shop enables students to test their design ideas on real materials at full scale, with training and access to a full complement of power tools at no charge. A full-time wood shop supervisor is on hand to provide technical assistance and facilitate practical problem solving as needed.

A well-lit office with large windows, shelves filled with books and supplies, hanging fabric samples, and cardboard boxes. The space appears organized, with storage bins and desks visible in the background.

Materials Library

The Interior Design Material’s Library is a resource for all UF Interior Design students. It is equipped with a light box for understanding the interaction of light color temperature and the appearance of color. It also has a variety of building materials, furniture and interior finishes aiding students in familiarizing themselves with many of the resources available.

A vintage black car with wings is displayed outside a modern art museum with a colorful stained-glass window, landscaped greenery, and a sign that reads ART on the building’s exterior.

Computer Lab

The computer lab located in Architecture 116, 118, & 120 is Academic Technology’s 24/7 computing space. Offering two classrooms and unique computing and printing hardware, the Architecture lab is a valuable resource for students both in and out of the College of Design, Construction and Planning.

Harn Museum

The museum builds and maintains exemplary art collections and produces a wide variety of challenging, innovative exhibitions and stimulating educational programs…” -excerpt from the Harn Museum Mission Statement.
