The Architecture Building is the home of Ball State University's College of Architecture and Planning in Muncie, Indiana. The college opened in the fall of 1965 in a converted naval armory just north of the present site. In 1972 it moved into the west portion of this building, and an addition was completed in 1980. The sources consulted do not name an architect.

The building holds the architecture library, labs, offices, studios, classrooms, a lecture hall, a resource center and a gallery. It also houses the Ball State Center for Energy Research/Education/Service, known as CERES.

In 2015, when the college marked its fiftieth anniversary, it had about 750 students. The building then held a robotic arm, virtual reality headsets and 3-D printers, and student installations were displayed throughout its halls.

This building has no Wikipedia article. Facts come from Wikipedia: Ball State University College of Architecture and Planning, Ball Bearings: The 50-year foundation of CAP.
