Project H, if you build it |
| Abstract |
A full-length documentary film that chronicles the students, projects, and work of Studio H high school design/build program. Studio H (an in-school design/build class program for 8th-11th grade students) was founded in 2008 by architects/designers Emily Pilloton and Matt Miller. If You Build It tells the stories of 13 students from Bertie County, North Carolina, who dreamed up a beautiful solution that would change the face of their hometown. Under their instructions, Emily Pilloton and Matt Miller, the students went out and built all 2,000 square feet of it. The story exemplifies the power of hands-on education, the raw brilliance of youth, and the impact a few budding creative minds can have on the future of a community. |
