These are all from Charles and include photos from his other published galleries, for a more centralized location. There are a lot from the early form-finding studies as well.
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.
