Day 5 | experience

Two more days to go!

The time we spend out here as students and our dedication to these projects have a significant impact not only in our community, but in us as young professionals. If you have been involved with the studio, you know that the quality and quantity of knowledge and skills we gain while working on our thesis project is quite substantial. We come in knowing little to nothing about construction and leave with a better understanding of how buildings are put together and how to work as a team. While building our knowledge, we become immersed in the community of Hale County. This allows us to better understand the environment and people for which we design.

Your contribution goes towards creating positive experiences for the users of these projects, and our experience working with a rural community in West Alabama.

Day 3 | World Mental Health Day!

Did you know that having access to nature can reduce stress and improve your mood? Think about how much better a work or living environment can be when you have a direct view of nature and natural light. Our project is providing just that for Project Horshoe Farm. Currently, there is no outdoor space for participants to enjoy fresh air during the day programs, or for kids to have activities outside on a nice day. 

With your help, we can provide Project Horseshoe Farm (our client) a flexible and inviting courtyard that fosters social interaction within the community in a safe and beautiful space.

Let’s build together!

Hi friends! Its day 2 of our fundraiser, and today we are focusing on building knowledge! One of the great things about the partnership with Project Horseshoe Farm is that while we spent a whole year building our architectural and construction knowledge, we also were exposed to the importance of mental health. Your donation towards these projects helps shed light on the needs of a rural community and an awareness that everyone deserves good design. As well of our education in becoming, as Mockbee would say, citizen architects.

We appreciate any and all contributions you can make! click on the link below to donate!
