Introduction to Client & Design Problem

Part of Lesson Plan: Barn to Office Conversion - Design Concept

Activity Overview / Details

This lecture should only take about 5 min. It is an opportunity to not only introduce the client for this project (see project overview handout) but to also discuss the importance of understanding the client and his/her needs. I talk about things such as the realities of the industry (i.e. if the client's needs are met, it doesn't matter how great the design is, etc.).

Note: I basically read the background information portion of the handout attached as the introduction to the client.
