3:20-5:20pm in 206 Lawrence HallWhat kind of emergency shelter can be created with minimal supplies?
We invite you to a hands-on workshop that will consider how materials can be adapted to respond to changing conditions. Together, instructors and students will create fabric structures to examine a spectrum of protection and discuss what creates a feeling of safe refuge and what it means to have shelter in an uncertain world. In the process, we can examine how a single surface can influence how we connect to each other and to the external environment. This workshop provides a brief introduction to the complexity of creating simple shelters and is offered as a public participation companion to Earl Mark’s ARCH 4/584 adaptive rapid shelter for forcibly displaced people studio.
