Summer school begins this week and although there are limited sections available, I know there will be lots of familiar faces around the campus. We have a full section of ID 100 starting tomorrow for the next 8 weeks and the summer Internship Academy is in full swing.
In the Spring 2011 semester, the Studio 2 class had an amazing opportunity to work with a local A&D firm (that’s Architecture and Design) to help design a showroom for Architxture, a Steelcase Dealership. The project was very much REAL! A real client, real deadlines and it will really be built and hopefully also achieve LEED certification!
The class was amazing. The teamwork, shared ideas, collaboration and communication were top notch. There was excitement in the air every Thursday evening and several Monday evenings too when the class met for client presentations.
As the semester came to an end, a final presentation to the client showcased the hard work, creative thinking and teamwork of the entire class.
Several of the students are continuing on as interns with Studio SA this summer. There they will be following along the progress of the Architxture project, and become immersed in the day to day activities of a Design Studio. Each week, we will publish an update and hopefully some photos so you can follow along from near and far to see what the future looks like.
Enjoy your summer and happy to have you following us along here too!
