Fallen Star is an art installation by the South Korean artist Do Ho Suh on the grounds of the University of California San Diego. It is a fully furnished cottage perched diagonally on the edge of the Jacobs School of Engineering building.
The structure was installed at UC San Diego in July 2012 and has become one of the icons of the Stuart collection of the public art campus. It is visible from Geisel Library and Warren Mall. The life-size installation (15 ft x 18 ft) weighs over 31 tonnes and offers views of the surrounding region and the eucalyptus forests of the campus. A small garden with eastern coastal plants surrounds a brick path that leads to the front door. The attraction can also be visited inside.
