another quarter has commenced at SCAD. group projects emerge, and design thinking takes center stage. this winter, a group of fellow design management grad students and I, have developed a concept we believe has a lot of potential. playUP savannah is the result of creative brainstorming with endless opportunities for success within the savannah community.


our mission statement: to foster community interaction and raise awareness for a local issue through a site-specific installation and promotional campaign. our project aims to facilitate creativity amongst the savannah community. we will be designing an “installation” to communicate a social (welfare) message, urging for a better, quality driven community/society. 


we are currently working to identify the issues/topics that are close to the hearts of native savannahians. we hope the playUP philosophy will resonate in cities around the country. local becomes global, think: playUP austin, or playUP cincinnati. making a difference, one city at a time…
