Summer Program: Digital Design: Tiny Houses (Grades 9-12) – Online

This event is occurring as a live online class. Registrants will be emailed a link to access the program the week prior to the program start date; please continue to register.

This program is SOLD OUT. The waitlist for 2023 Summer Programs is available here.
Time: 9:30 am – 3:30 pm (Lunch Break: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm) ET, daily

Inspired by the rising popularity of miniature houses, students will examine small spaces and how limited square footage can inspire exciting design innovation. They’ll also be introduced to sustainable design strategies that can make tiny homes energy-efficient enough to support off-the-grid living. Students will then design their own tiny house using the fun and free 3D design software SketchUp and create an animated walkthrough of their finished project.

This program will be held online via Zoom. Students will need a laptop or desktop computer, a three-click mouse, and Windows 11 or 10 or Mac OS 13+ (Ventura), 12+ (Monterey) and 11+ (Big Sur) to download SketchUp software. Web-based software can be used on a Chromebook, but Digital Design classes cannot be done on a tablet or phone.
