The University of Houston's campus is a diverse tapestry of architectural styles reflecting its nearly century-long history and growth. From the original 1930s Roy G. Cullen Building, the campus has expanded to include a mix of mid-century modern, brutalist, postmodern, and contemporary designs. Notable structures include the iconic Ezekiel W. Cullen Building with its prominent front plaza and cougar statues, the Philip Johnson-designed Gerald D. Hines College of Architecture and Design, and the vibrant Student Center. Interspersed with academic and administrative buildings are green spaces, fountains, and public art installations, creating an "urban forest" feel that defines the campus. While lacking a singular unified architectural style, this eclectic collection of buildings contributes to the unique character and dynamic atmosphere of the University of Houston
