About this Event

PROGRAM OBJECTIVE:

The 2025 Teen Design Build program intends to introduce and expose high school students to Architecture and other Design Fields through an array of educational and participatory activities which includes guest speakers from various professions, skills training, designing neighborhood structures, and more.

For five weeks, students will be introduced to a series of design tools and learn new ways to think critically about their community. The goal is to understand different design career paths, gain the skills needed to excel, and learn more about the design process behind a project. The five sessions will loosely follow a typical architecture project design sequence: Pre-Design, Schematic Design, Design Development, and Production.

DELIVERABLE:

Create a ¼” scale model of a pavilion for the Southside neighborhood of Hyde Park.

LOGISTICS:

Meet at Southside STEM Station for every scheduled session day at 12pm.
