2024
Our mission is to empower young people to effect change in their community through design. We seek to serve a diverse population of students, all of whom are underrepresented in the design field. Through Project Pipeline, students are able to develop the skills and tools to contribute to their community critically and constructively.
Day 1
Starting off on day one, the students learned about plans, sections, and elevations. Students had a chance to create a small model from legos, with mentors joining in on the fun! Students also had the chance to visit the sites they would be using throughout the week and learning from the local community the projects would take place in.
Day 2
This allowed the students to learn more about the different paths Architecture and Design could take and the expression of design by creating collages. Students also used this chance to start building their physical models and begin pining up the work from the week on their presentation boards they would later present.
Day 3
Finishing up the Project Pipeline 2024 Week, the student eagerly arrived early to the presentation to add more details to their models and prepare to practice their skills in verbal presentation. Students spoke in front of the mentors, parents, siblings, extended family, and architects. While all students in a group shared a project site, one group combined the challenge of having their models share the same scale and stack together. Students wowed the audience by achieving such a high level of success.
