Seven applicants selected from an open call will work closely with local craftsmen and practicing professionals on site, developing practical, technological, and presentational skills. They will work together as a team to cultivate ideas critical to the overall form of the project. As a part of the entire design and build process, participants will learn how to build a structure from ground up and partake in collaborative design. Consideration of the rural location of the Five Sisters Farm and negotiation with the real world complexities of this site are crucial to the realization of each participant’s design ideas. The team will present their ideas to a local public audience, develop the design content, and engage in all aspects of the construction.
