— Adaptive Reuse: Community Place Making

Catalog description

This course is offered to Interior Design students working for three weeks either in an international design office or classroom environment. Students are exposed to strategic planning methods of design and their impact on local redevelopment, and are introduced to the process of critical evaluation of existing city and neighborhood resources, which will support their proposals for an interior design group project. With an emphasis on adaptive reuse and repurposing existing interior spaces, students will propose design ideas for cultural, residential and commercial uses.
