SHIFT

The ISU second year design studio (ARCH 202) was invited by the Reliable St. artists’ collective to design a new installation for their upcoming opening. Reliable St.  is a non-profit organization which is currently developing an entrepreneurial incubator and community space with live music, food, coffee, and a bar. Several College of Design faculty, as well as local Iowa artists are participating in the effort.
The project, entitled SHIFT, is a public outdoor space of shifting stacked elements that integrates seating and spaces for play. It is constructed primarily of cedar lumber and deck screws. The installation also includes a LED lighting display powered by solar panels donated by PowerFilm, a local Ames company. The project is partially-funded by Reliable St. as well as a 2017 Fieldstead Studio Outreach Grant. Additional project sponsors include Lowes, Saul Engineering, and MODUS.
