Barren Lands First Nation
Pilot Project
Status: Complete
Type: Pilot Project
Date: 2022/07/18 - 2022/08/05
Located deep within the Boreal Forest of Northern Manitoba, our team traveled to Barren Lands First Nation to introduce students to the design-build process guided by our micro-accredited curriculum. Working together with the Manitoba Construction Sector Council and the Manitoba Institute of Trades and Technology, students were encouraged to explore and develop design concepts for a small-scale structure within their community. Throughout our process, students were exposed to methods and tools such as site analysis, sketching/modeling, drafting, budgeting, digital fabrication, and VR/AR technologies, all while using storytelling as the guiding principle to creatively explore and openly communicate all their ideas.
