Design Charrette

For this Project we had the prompt of a woman who willed 100 Acres to be built into a town. So in a group of 6 stakeholders we designed the town.


In this project I liked that everyone had a specific area that they needed to focus on so that everyone brought something to the group. I didn't like that we only had a day and 15 minutes to work on the design so it wasn't as detailed as it could have been. I learned that a lot of planning goes into building a town from scratch.

Nathan M was the cost estimator.

Ben was the Environmental Engineer

Michael was the Health and Safety

Matt was the Health and Safety

Nathan K was the structural engineer

Sebastian Swanson was the interior designer

The environmentalist says 3 trees per house.
