Description: Rice Design Alliance’s 2011 design charrette will focus on creating a plan for Workshop Houston’s future—a non-profit organization located in Houston’s Third Ward whose mission is to provide youth with creative, technical, and educational resources. These resources take place through five “shops”—the “Scholar Shop,” the “Beat Shop,” the “Bike Shop,” the “Chopper Shop,” and the “Style Shop”—each focused on nurturing students’ practical and creative skills.

The charrette, named “Charrette Shop,” will seek to maximize the efficiency of Workshop Houston’s current space, and build a plan for expanding the space. More information will be delivered to participants on the day of the charrette.

rdAGENTS, Rice Design Alliance’s young professional’s group, invite interested parties to participate in the juried competition. An entry fee of $20 for RDA members and $30 for non-members will cover breakfast, lunch, and refreshments at day’s end. The competition is open to architects and non-architects, designers, individuals or teams of up to five.
