Event Detail

A 5-day Holiday Camp designed for children to explore various make and build projects; to test ideas through hands-on exploration, training dexterity, creative and critical thinking while learning new skills.

On day 1, children will explore model making and be creative to Build a TreeHouse with consideration for its form, features, levels, platforms and openings. With a natural tree branch given as a site context, children will visualize their design and learn the support and access needed for their TreeHouse design. 

On 2nd day, children will be guided by experienced instructors from LittlePrintings, who are specialists in creating unique 3D printed designs. Children will learn TinkerCAD to create a usable stationery pot before exporting it to a 3D printer for printing; and witness the process of their digital form being printed from scratch. While waiting for their 3D print, students will continue to explore TinkerCAD digital space; learning how to use the software as a design tool to create various digital forms. This immersive hands-on learning will empower them to envision, design, and shape their future prototypes.

The last 3 days, children will Design a Home for themselves or their Family. Children will apply Design Thinking principles in understanding the needs and challenges of who they are designing for and be introduced to the basics of space planning for a home. They will translate their 2D planning to 3D model with consideration for architectural scale, light, ventilation, views and communal landscape area in their design.

Through the 5 days, children will learn basic model making and get creative re-using, re-purposing and transforming everyday materials into their unique individual design model prototypes.

DesignTinkers camps are specially curated and led by instructors who are architects, designers and educators with the passion and experience of working with young children to nurture their creative interests. Camps are held in our spacious and conducive classroom for kids to create and explore freely under guidance.
