Making Furniture with Transitional Housing Residents

Students of Section A have engaged in a hands-on workshop to work with transitional housing residents in Blossom residents collaborating with SoCO and Domat. They co-design and construct together with residents a wooden shelf fit for the special entrance spaces at their homes. It provides opportunity for students to talk to real stakeholder who live in affordable housing, and understand their needs to make a comfortable home.
