More than 100 GCA students and faculty from the Interior Design, Construction Science and Architecture programs visited the offices of Merriman Anderson Architects and Balfour Beatty for a field trip to Dallas last Friday, February 1st. The field trip included a firm tour, project presentations, and lunch hosted by Merriman Anderson. With Balfour Beatty, students received tours of the Epic Office and Pittman Hotel project sites.
