Culture

In communities throughout, we are becoming culturally isolated from one another. We view the world through our wind-shields, television screens, and i-phones. Our urban fabric is formed of an anonymous grid of vehicles and garage doors with little opportunity given to consequential social interaction and authentic empathy.

 

We ask, "does the design create opportunities for meaningful social exchange and learning?"
