Hurricanes Katrina & Rita
 
After Hurricane Katrina, the students decided to refocus the design-build studio toward helping in the relief and recovery effort. To have an immediate and local impact, they designed and fabricated toy game boxes with over 100 puzzles for delivery to the evacuation shelters. The games and puzzles provided a much needed diversion for the families and children displaced from their homes.
