Urban Aeries

We're happy to announce that Melissa McDonnell, M.Arch '11, Rice University (in partnership with Animal Architecture's Ned Dodington) has won a prestigious RDA (Rice Design Alliance) Houston Initiatives Grant for a very cool project. The project is titled “Urban Aeries” and aims to design urban roosting habitats for Houston's migratory bird population.
