Ed W Clark High School's Architecture Club brings together students passionate about design, space, and the built environment around us. From drafting to 3D modeling — we create, critique, and imagine the desert around us.
Clark Architecture Club is a student-led organization at Ed W. Clark High School dedicated to exploring the world of design, architecture, and the built environment.
We believe great design starts with curiosity. Our members learn to see the world differently — to question why a building feels the way it does, how a city block shapes daily life, and what it takes to design a space that serves its community.
Whether you want to pursue architecture in college, study urban planning, or simply love the creativity of design, there's a place for you here. No experience required.
From semester-long design challenges to quick charrettes, our members produce real work. Many of these projects are submitted to national competitions for critique and awards, while others are purely for learning and fun. Here are a few highlights from recent years — click to see more details on each project.
Members designed a community gathering space adapted to Las Vegas's desert climate — passive cooling, shading, and indigenous material palettes.
A street-level redesign proposal for a stretch of Sahara Avenue — wider sidewalks, transit shelters, small retail activation, and green corridors.
Students designed and built 1:50 scale tiny house models under a strict 400 sq ft constraint, exploring efficiency and livability.
Teams selected a shuttered mid-century motel along Fremont Street and proposed adaptive reuse into mixed-use affordable housing.
An ongoing proposal for retrofitting Clark High School's campus with solar shading, stormwater management, and outdoor learning spaces.
Each spring, members submit independent work to our juried showcase — open to all media, scales, and design topics of personal interest.
Sessions are a mix of workshops, design critiques, guest presentations, and collaborative project work. All skill levels welcome.
"Curated by our members
You don't need to know how to draw or use design software to join. What matters is curiosity — an interest in how the world is built and a willingness to learn and create.
