Choose Appropriate Design Activities
As the design studio host, we’re responsible for choosing activities that guide everyone through the create-share-critique steps in a fast, effective, and fun way. There are many design activities we could use, though not all design activities are appropriate for architecture design. Try to select activities that are architecturally focused and effective when thinking about the system as a whole.
