The Mexico City Global Studio Exhibition consists of over 300 images of the top selected works produced by students at both The University of Nevada, Las Vegas and La Universidad Iberoamericana (IBERO). This exhibition took a month to plan a two weeks to produce to completion. The main focus of the exhibition was to showcase the immense amount of amazing work the participating students did and to encourage students within the UNLV School of Architecture to apply for the programs the following year. This was an intensive design program that focused on creating an urban master plan of Barranca de Tarango, in the heart of Mexico City, to revitalize the area and to produce a design that could both act as a green space for the city, but still function and allow all users to enjoy the space. This exhibition could not have been possible without the help of PROXIIMA, the UNLV Architecture Studies Library, and the students who participated in the Mexico City Global Studio, both from UNLV and IBERO.
