DESIGN+BUILD PROJECTS BY CLEMSON COMMUNITY BUILD
Good Morning! This weekend we have been hard at work producing structural drawings to send to John Moore today for redlining.

I have been working with the team to finalize the structure for [...]
Breaking the Ice There is always that pressure to make a good first impression when meeting someone new. It is not as bad knowing that the Charleston Parks Conservancy has had a long and fruitful relationship with Pastre and Studio V students in the past.

After a successful site visit last week and with our first full week of classes beginning today, Studio V is off to a good start!

This blog will be updated daily by the students and professor of Studio V as a way to document our design/build process, and keep all those who may be interested in our progress of the semester’s project informed. Small buildings have always had a particular appeal. Micro works [...]
Studio is now in full swing. We are a group of 12 students - bright eyed and bushy tailed. We met with the client on Wednesday and toured a few previous sites to get a feel for other community gardens that have been completed by Clemson Community Build students. This semester, we are joining with [...]
