Project H uses the power of the design process to catalyze communities and public education from within.
We are a team of designers and builders engaging in our own backyards to improve the quality of life for all. Our six-tenet design process (There is no design without (critical) action; We design WITH, not FOR; We document, share and measure; We start locally and scale globally; We design systems, not stuff; We build) results in simple and effective design solutions that empower communities and build collective creative capital.
Our specific focus is the re-thinking of environments, products, experiences, and curricula for K-12 education institutions in the US, including design/build Studio H high school program in the Bertie County School District, North Carolina.
WE BELIEVE DESIGN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

When planning a programme it is important to consider how staff and students experience the delivery of that programme and its assessment. Core to this process are the dates when assessments are set and subsequently handed in – students do not want to have a bunching of coursework and staff need to manage their workload! The Programme Mapper does both. It will graphically display all the hand-in dates for each course within a programme and display, in real time, the effect of any changes you make.
