Design for Good class with Habitat for Humanity and Restore this coming winter 2023

 

We're looking for 1-2 photography students, both undergraduate and graduate, for the following Design for Good class with Habitat for Humanity and Restore this coming winter 2023 quarter.  It will be a fun and meaningful project for students to be a part of and gain experience as they start their careers. 

The students can reach out to me directly via mnandigj@scad.edu.  

Thank you!

We're offering a Savannah-based on ground GOOD 560 course with Habitat for Humanity and ReStore this Winter 2023 Quarter!

 GOOD 560 Design for Good 

Background

The multidisciplinary course, GOOD 560 Design for Good, directly supports the mission of SCAD SERVE, our community service design studio. Focusing on four critical areas of need — food, clothing, shelter, and environment — SCAD SERVE empowers the SCAD community to listen to the needs of its neighbors and local leaders, and create meaningful design solutions that improve quality of life. Volunteerism, public service, and social impact are and always have been an integral part of SCAD’s character. GOOD 560 Design for Good employs our students' collective brilliance through elevated, design-for-good solutions that make a difference in our hometowns of Atlanta and Savannah.

Background 

Affordable housing is a national conversation, Coastal Empire Habitat for Humanity and ReStore bring solutions for affordable housing to the local community. Through a ReStore, donated home goods are resold and funds from the store help bring the possibility of homeownership to families throughout the Coastal Empire.  

Deliverables

The ReStore is an important source of income to help fund and fuel home-building projects in the community. Maximizing the sales from the store and community awareness of the ReStore will increase profits and increase funds for new home builds. Arranged inside a long-term lease of a former grocery store, the ReStore is set up in sections within a large space with limited directional signage or wayfinding and limited visuals along the shopping spaces. With the help of SCAD SERVE and GOOD 560 students and faculty, the development of a wayfinding and directional system for the ReStore in addition to creating and identifying appropriate visuals to adorn the walls and help convey the “Habitat for Humanity Story”, is anticipated that customers, clients, and community members will better utilize and understand the importance of their dollar by purchasing from the ReStore.

• Wayfinding system to optimize the shopping experience through directional improvement and signage
• Visuals to enhance the ReStore space to narrate the story of a shopper’s dollar and improve community awareness of shopping to help others
• Scope out the intended use of the space and provide renderings, NOT for professional use
• Determine the best use of interior and available space, as well as the most economical design decisions
• Production of renderings, design features, and visual schematics to be used in grant proposals and donor relations
