Creating Community
I am a senior in the MSU Denver Industrial Design program. My senior thesis is based on sharing and building community right at home through gardening and sharing with each other. People are very busy and move often, causing some to feel disconnected with where they live. A small hub that allows one to garden and share books may help connect each other, inspire passerbys to participate, and help open up the potential that lies in all of us within our community. I have a test prototype built in my front yard now in the Clayton neighborhood of Denver.
