LifeWorks Home Improvement Challenge BEGINS


This is Sixthriver Architects 4th year to be involved with the LifeWorks Home Improvement Challenge (HIC) with our corporate team sponsor American Campus Communities. Through LifeWorks HIC, corporate and community teams partner with designers to design the space of a LifeWorks client. LifeWorks clients are former homeless youth and teen parents who need a "getting on your feet period", and are offered subsidized housing by LifeWorks. Our job is to transform their apartments with a dramatic makeover, as well as providing items to help them get a fresh start.


We are excited to meet our client Vanesha and her 8 month old son Branden today at the official Kick-Off of HIC '09! This is our only opportunity to interview the client, take pictures and measure the apartment. Then we will have 1 MONTH for our team (Sixthriver Architects and American Campus Commuitites) to get donations, create a design scheme, and prepare for the 8 hour makeover on September 25th, 2009.
