WELCOME


WELCOME
to the LSU Minden Main Street Workshop. Students and faculty from the LSU School of Architecture will be working and living in Minden for two weeks to provide assistance to Minden Louisiana Main Street in their efforts to cultivate a resilient community. This program is funded in part through a grant awarded to the LSU Office of Community Design and Development from the National Endowment for the Arts. The Minden Main Street Workshop is the first in a series of workshops to connect environmentally responsible design practices with historic preservation strategies to accelerate sustainable development in Louisiana's small towns and cities. For more information, please contact the Office of Community Design and Development.

Team Hardware. Oh yeah!


We were the first group in the building today....again. We continued to work out our design ideas with our interior courtyard, plans, and roof design. Each day our plans and over all ideas become clearer as we further develop our drawings and models. As of now we work individually on different things to present to client because we have such a big project and so much to design. Our last client meeting is tomorrow and we hope to develop a clear understanding of what our design ideas are and what we will present for our final presentation. Tonight there is a lunar eclipse around midnight-- the next one wont happen again till 2093 so you might wont to go see it. Stay thirsty my friends.
