Design Discovery 2019: Kit of Parts
You will be given a 鈥渒it of parts," that is, a set of pieces you can work with and asked to make a model that has both a defined 鈥渆nclosed鈥 or private space(s) and a defined 鈥渙pen鈥 or more public space(s). These models are abstract; the solid 鈥減ieces鈥 are there only to define the space between them. There is no numeric scale to this project; let the relationship between the open and enclosed spaces show scale.

Design Discovery 2019: Lounge Device Project
This project challenges campers to work in groups to create a cardboard lounge table device. Each team will be given multiple sheets of cardboard.
Before you make the finished device, each team will produce three 1/4-sized study models and one full-size connection detail.
By working through this process of design, the devices will be more thoughtful and coherent at the end of the project.
The cardboard lounge table device must support at least one person from the team as well as perform one other task determined by the group.
