Day 7: Crunch Time
Posted: June 22, 2006

   It's the last full day of camp today and we start in early on yesterday's project.  With the conceptual ideas on the table, th campers should now focus on bringing together a completed design.  Using drawings and models, each camper should extract the best ideas from last night's charrette and apply them to the final design.  The rest of the day is a work day to allow each camper fully explore all possiblities of relationships between space, site , representation and building form.

    Later this evening when studio work has died down we will have a small end of camp party in the studio for the campers.  It will feature The Persians., a popular band of talented musicians that play the local Starkville bar scene.  Pizza will be the entree of the evening while the campers enjoy a not so quite evening at "the Barn."
