The max budget to purchase wood was $200, the minimum height at all points of the bridge was 3 inches, the…

In the last thirty years, end-of-life disassembly has been taking shape and evolving the way we design, produce, and discard products. End-of-life disassembly involves obtaining a product that has already served its purpose to the consumer and disassembling the product to recycle or reuse its components in the manufacturing process.

learned new things with Tinkercad. I learned how to make designs with different shapes and learned what 3D printing was actually like. It was difficult at first but then I got the hang of it and I started to love it. I created an earbud holder that was a mouse that actually worked out pretty well.

Architecture is not just the study of structure, but more importantly, the study of people. All architecture becomes a part of city planning; once a building is developed, it immediately becomes a part of the local urban fabric. As architects you design for the present with an awareness of the past for a future that is essentially unknown.…

With the matrix structure, it overlaps both the functional design, which is what Omidyar initially started out with and the divisional design. Within the matrix structure method, employees belong to at least two groups at the same time.
