Hillyard Design Charrette
January 11-13, The streets of Hillyard. Each Fall and Spring semester Washington State University Spokane’s Interdisciplinary Design Institute (IDI) starts with a two- to three-day charrette. A charrette is an intense design, problem solving process of limited duration. The charrette planned for January 11, 12, and 13 will join Rogers High School students with WSU graduate and undergraduate architecture, landscape architecture, and interior design students. Twenty-five teams of IDI and high school students will focus their creative energies on the revitalization of downtown Hillyard, Market Street retail district. Our intent is that each design team will have two high school student members.  Check the Community Forum for more information: http://www.historic-hillyard.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=370
