4th year interior design students are kicking off their final year in the program on a project partnering with the Gillespie Group!

Teams of students will work through the programming process, schematics, and design development phases to propose design concepts on a 1,200 square-foot former hospitality space in downtown Lansing.

Students visited the site for the first time on September 14, 2026, to interview Gillespie Group representatives and conduct an interior and exterior site analysis. They have the next 4 weeks to work through their proposals and will complete the project by presenting to Gillespie team members.

We hosted our annual SPDC Speaker Series on September 10, 2026!

Students were joined by faculty, alumni and interested professionals for an in-depth panel discussion with members of the team behind the Hudson's Detroit Development project led by Bedrock Detroit.

The evening investigated how SPDC's four fields - Construction Management, Interior Design, Landscape Architecture, and Urban & Regional Planning - collaborate in the real world during the planning and completion of large scale projects like Hudson's.

Thank you to our six panelists, four of which are alumni of SPDC programs, for sharing your insights from working on this impressive project that is reshaping Detroit!
