Taught By: Yvette Chaparro and Barent Roth
Section: A

CRN: 14861

Credits: 3

In this interdisciplinary course, encouraging the disciplines of Interior Design, Industrial Design, Textiles, and Architecture to come together, the concepts of decolonization and decarbonisation are used as a lens to explore thematics around materiality and its regenerative possibilities. Through experimentation and exploration, students will frame projects around new practices of making as part of a circular process of living. The thematics will be questioned and developed throughout the semester with the help of practical research and guest speakers. This class will be divided into two sections at the undergraduate and graduate levels, fostering a collaborative environment within academic levels and disciplines.

Open to: All university upper-level undergraduate degree students.
