Masterworks 2026: A Room of One’s Home
A Room of One’s Home brings together the work of six Waterloo Architecture graduates and alumni whose research reflects on relationships between architecture, diaspora, memory, and cultural knowledge. Through drawings, publications, artifacts, and architectural research, the exhibition considers how ideas of home are carried across places and generations. The works explore architecture’s potential to reconnect people with landscapes, histories, and identities, while creating space for exchange, reflection, and renewed belonging.
