Earlier this week, a group of CU environmental design students wrapped up their summer research, design-build studio led by Lecturer Danielle Bilot. Since mid-May, students learned about bees, plants and landscape planning to turn a campus parking lot into a native bee habitat.
This is the second 鈥渇orgotten hive鈥� design studio Bilot has instructed. In summer 2018, students transformed a Boulder city parking lot near the Boulder Dushanbe Teahouse into a bee haven.
The new campus pollinator lot is located near the engineering building, on the corner of lot 436 and the parking garage.
Learn more about Bilot鈥檚 research, design-build studio today from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the third floor of the environmental design building. Students will be showcasing a gallery of work and interactive exhibits about native bees in Colorado and their impact on the environment.
