Charrette
I’ve spent the past 16 or so hours in the West Hall grad space looking over the charrette to design new studios in the space that we’re holding this weekend. I’ve been developing this project with Yael over the past year, and it’s been great to see it unfold successfully.
We have seven excellent teams who have been working all day and night on their proposals. Tomorrow the boards go up and our judges will pick a winner, second place, and two honorable mentions. We’ve had excellent food all day, and I’ve managed to keep afloat thus far through a strange concoction of coffee, water, food, and rum. Looks like I’ll be here all night.
Alas.
