How a tiny midwestern town became a mecca for modern architecture

Architectural origin story

Columbus, Ind.'s reputation among architects took off in the 1950s, when its largest employer, engine manufacturer Cummins, began covering architecture fees for new modernist public schools. A new book showcases the modernist mecca, home to the Miller M. Arch program.

Explore Columbus

Through the exploration of art and architecture, our program empowers individuals to discover their creative voice and become community-minded, globally-engaged artists and designers.

Linking art and architecture

The J. Irwin Miller Architecture Program is uniquely based on twin studio experiences of architectural design and studio art. Cross-pollination of these allied disciplines creates fertile ground for the development of the imagination. Our multi-disciplinary curriculum will embolden you to pursue innovation at the intersection of art and architecture.
