The Open Design Studio offered a chance to meet N52's design community — MIT D-Lab, the Self-Assembly Lab, the Urban Risk Lab, MAD's Design Fellows, MITdesignX — while engaging in hands-on activities. As visitors explored the third floor of the N52 building, they mingled with designers showcasing various projects and design approaches, strolled down picture galleries, raised maize, customized bandanas, and designed the word “design.” Snapshots below.
