Collaborative Design through Integrated Minds
The EDR DesignShift Charrette is a two-day interactive workshop
for California university and college students - that's you! Work
with real industry professionals and learn to use integrated design
to develop a zero-net-energy building concept over two intensive
days of design! See results of previous charrettes here.
Using a series of methods and tools (free to download after the
charrette), you will work collaboratively in teams of five to
create a zero-net energy building and quantify its energy
savings.
It doesn't stop there! Participating in this charrette qualifies
each team to enter a design competition. Each member of the
winning team will receive an iPad2!
This charrette is 100% funded by the Energy Design Resources
(EDR) and by Southern California Edison (SCE).
