We are moving fast! The 4 teams are comprised of one member from each discipline represented, architecture, industrial design, landscape architecture, interior design and graphic design. The project, design a MOBILE GATHERING SPACE (see Project Brief under Project Info on the left sidebar) associated with an urban, social place/business. Some have focused their study area and others struggled to reign it in. After a group discussion to reinforce the challenge at hand, the teams quickly pulled together their research. At this stage we are looking for the research to lead us to a big idea, not for us to lead the research.

We briefly discussed the lessons learned from the Medici Effect – “When you step into an intersection of fields, disciplines, or cultures, you can combineĀ existing concepts into a large number of extraordinary new ideas.” Good read, check out the excerpt on the sidebar.
