Tomorrow is the cleaning-up and re-establishment of the studio as a space that supports the production and exhibition of material for the research course. Given the limited studio space relative to the amount and size of models that will be produced, we will need to consider different possibilities for storage (place on shelves, under tables, hang from ceiling, pin on walls, 6.5 floor, etc...)
