Course Description
Architects ask big questions: as online shopping grows, brick-and-mortar stores close. And as remote work becomes prevalent, office buildings sit empty. How can we repurpose the empty buildings? Dream big and explore ideas for urban design strategies. Collaborate and fabricate hands-on creations in our Makerspace. Through field trips, experience San Francisco through the eyes of an architect.
