Overview
George Washington University students have presented a collection of projects as part of their program. These projects include a performing arts space, a communal housing initiative, and a hair salon concept. The performing arts space was designed to reflect the physical and emotional trajectory inherent in live performance.
Approach
The projects highlighted originated from George Washington University. One specific design concept involved a performing arts space created by students. This theatre's design aimed to mirror the "emotional arc of performance." Beyond this, students also developed a design for communal housing intended for families. Another project focused on a hair salon conceived as a therapeutic environment specifically for African American women.
Findings
- A theatre designed by George Washington University students sought to embody the "emotional arc of performance."
