Lessons from the Front Lines of Social Design

A fellow Rural Studio participant Will Holman wrote this in-depth evaluation for Design Oberservor’s Places blog of his time with Arcosanti, Rural Studio, and YouthBuild (via HERO).

Look out for the mention of Epicenter along with a rendering for Bear’s House.

Will’s observations based through experience are certainly representative of this certain generation of architects and designers searching for a life working for a greater good while still being able to “make a living and advance professionally.”

We’re honored to be mentioned alongside Rural Studio, Arcosanti, HERO, & Project H. Here’s to “long-term engagement” and “unpaid idealists”!
