FABRIC Tucson FABRIC is the incubator of fashion for Arizona. They are very valuable to the communities that host them. However, what makes FABRIC succeed is the knowledge of the designers that reside within the walls. How do these designers benefit in gaining knowledged? Well, interacting with other mindsets. Now FABRIC takes another home in the Barrio Libre. This barrio is in desperate need of a resurgence. FABRIC’s new home can help resurge the barrio. However, allowing interactions to dominate the new project is key. Knowledge is power, for designers, FABRIC, and the Barrio Libre. This project is successful with the adaptability of spaces at FABRIC TUCSON. Allowing the barrio to enter and view with transparency makes them want to be engaged in FABRIC. FABRIC teaches the skills that are valuable to the barrio. Allowing head on exchanges, community exchanges, and professional exchanges make this a win for all sides. Flexing spaces is a key to allowing several scales of exchanges which enrich knowledge.

Timber In the City Competition People are tired of living and experiencing nothing but grey sites, and brown fields. Its unhealthy to see such sites dominate areas such as Queens, New York. Well, the Outdoor at Queensborough is your cure. A community friendly residential complex that emphasizes the idea of green around you. This is a center for the community to come and enjoy life. The project has an educational development center for the youth around. Go outside and experience the green all around. I hope that the idea will spark a new way of building in Queens.

Economically Challenged- Without Dwelling Observation-
Economically Challenged- How the society feels-
Heavy concentrations of people without homes around the project site. Historically such area was home for such individuals, until Maricopa County Government pushed them out. Abandoned by society essentially, the epidemic of dwelless people will persist.
Throughout abservations and quick interviews, it was apparent that existing communities have little to no care for economically challenged individuals. However, only the arts district responded with the believe that designers and the next young professionals can tackle this problem. 13
