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.

we took webby 2x5 out for a spin this saturday in the hereford colonnade.. a few different configurations, but finally tuning in a centered / over-exit pose that was a pleasant surprise to those rounding the corner from newbury st. 3 more doors to outfit at the BAC site!
