Underlying Program Goals:

// lead students in HANDS-ON construction combined with a design studio education in order to discover new intersections between design and fabrication.


// foster a COLLABORATIVE studio environment such that students engage more fully in a dialogue with their peers, practitioners, context and communities.


// implement architecture, design and the making of space to catalyze POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE and stewardship of our built environment.

BOX thoughts

Team- please brainstorm for 10 minutes today as to what we can do with the boxes, and what materials, brushes, or applications you'd like to try Sunday for removing the pain etc.

keep in mind that one possible end solution will be to red paint directly the milk crate - which we tested at the end of the day last Sunday - and we'll take a look at this weekend.

please post your thoughts as a comment below
