Lynda.com Hot Studios Open Architecture Network Start to Finish-QUASAR
Maria Giudice’s premiere web design company, Hot Studio, gives you a front-row seat as they take their Open Architecture Network project through initial intake, ethnographic research, free sketching on airplane tray tables, visual and interface design, schematics, and programming. They create a virtual ecosystem where architects and designers can globally collaborate to build unique living environments. In this installment of Start to Finish, watch as Maria Giudice accepts the challenge at the TED conference and takes it from the floor of a post-Hurricane Katrina church in Biloxi, Mississippi, to online participation by over 13,000 people in 200 countries—with a lot of collaboration with partners Sun Microsystems, Architecture for Humanity, and her San Francisco studio in between. See the final work yourself and check out the Open Architecture Network.
