The application-based workshop is open to students and young professionals from across the United States, Mexico, and Canada in an effort to challenge the perception, value, and relevancy of the practice of architecture in Raleigh, one of the fastest growing cities in the United States. While specific to Raleigh, workshop projects address urban challenges that face many American cities.
Last year’s workshop welcomed eighteen participants from six states and eight universities. While here, participants developed critical design proposals for social problems found in the city. The work participants created last year was the subject of a public exhibit on 08 05 22 in downtown Raleigh at First Friday. The workshop lecture series and First Friday show were open to the public, with over eight hundred people attending, and sparked a critical dialogue about the future of the built environment in downtown Raleigh. 2022 lecturers included Ifeoma Ebo of Creative Urban Alchemy, David Seiter of Future Green Studio, Johanna Hurme of 5468796 arch, Neeraj Bhatia of the Open Workshop, and Hector Barroso.
