The College of Architecture and Design is the school of architecture, interior design, landscape architecture and graphic design at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was founded in 1965 as the «New School of Architecture».[1]
In 1965, the University of Tennessee established the New School of Architecture and appointed architect Bill N. Lacy as its first dean, a position he held until 1969.[2]
In 1981, the college moved to its current location in the officially named «Art + Architecture Building», the result of an open-call competition won by son-and-father team Doug McCarty and Bruce McCarty, the latter a partner at McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects and Interior Designers.[1]
In 1997, the school integrated the School of Interior Architecture —originally named the School of Interior Design— into the college. Two year laters, the college officially changed its name to the «College of Architecture and Design».[1]
In 2008, the college launched the School of Landscape Architecture[3] as part of a partnership with the university’s Herbert College of Agriculture, becoming the first program of its kind in the state.[4]
In 2014, the college opened the Fab Lab in downtown Knoxville.[5] The 20,000-square-foot facility was renovated to provide students and faculty access to computer-aided design and manufacturing tools such as computer-numerically-controlled routers, mills, laser cutters, 3D printers, and robotics.[5]
In 2019, the college added Graphic Design.[1]
