續.胡言亂語

Yesterday,we went to Cynthia Lawson's lecture.She is one of Parsons' teacher.



Anyway,She talked a lot about the project she instructed in Dominican Republic.She said that she asked her students to observe the place and get involved into the culture.They walked around Boca de Chavon--a village nearby.It was only accessible via water before.



The most important thing in this project is:students must consider the tourist.Their purpose is to help this village to get advantages from visitors.



I like this idea.Design is a process to solve problems.The project sounds interesting to me,although I have no idea about Dominican Republic.I wish I could join the project,too.And the words by Cynthia Lawson I liked most are:Design is not only to solve but to find problems.I cannot agree with her more.I think observation is an important skill as for design.
