Climate-adaptive Design 2023 studio

Announcement: 2023 CaD Studio Cancelled

Thank you so much for your time and interest in the Climate-adaptive Design Studio. The Hudson River Estuary Program and Cornell University have had to make the difficult decision not to offer the 2023 Climate-adaptive Design (CaD) Engaged Studio. The 2023 CaD Studio will be canceled and we are no longer accepting applications. We apologize for any effort your community has made toward its application and will make sure you are aware of any future opportunities. Thank you for your continual support. 


What is the Climate-adaptive Design studio?

The Climate-adaptive Design (CaD) studio is a collaboration between Cornell University Landscape Architecture Professor Josh Cerra and the NYS DEC Hudson River Estuary Program. The semester-long studio links students in landscape architecture with Hudson Riverfront communities to explore design alternatives for thriving, climate-resilient waterfront areas. Community stakeholders take part throughout the studio semester to help inform the design process and support practical results. For more info, watch our 5-minute video and visit our CaD website.
