Rediscovered treasures spanning 50 years of architectural design and education will form the basis of a new exhibition at the University of ÐÂÀË²ÊÆ± as part of the official 2008 program.

The free exhibition, Designing Designers - the Evolution of an Architect, represents a snapshot of the development of architecture in South Australia dating back to 1958.

The Hon. , Minister for the City of ÐÂÀË²ÊÆ±, will officially launch Designing Designers at 5.30pm on Monday 25 February.

The exhibition consists of design drawings and models dating back to the inception of the University of ÐÂÀË²ÊÆ±'s then Faculty of Architecture and Town Planning in 1958.

"Until recently, this collection remained an undiscovered treasure in our storerooms, with student works - many of them by students who went on to become prominent Australian architects - kept for the purpose of School accreditation," says t
