YES! HOUSE
2018-2019

Collaborator: Homeboat
Partners: Southwest Minnesota Housing Partnership, Department of Public Transformation
Funder:  ArtPlace America



Working as the design collective Homeboat, we led an open, inclusive, collaborative exploration of what a community-oriented building could be in downtown Granite Falls, Minnesota, a town settled on Dakota land now bordering the Upper Sioux community. This creative community design/build process spans from discovery to implementation and centers on community-created solutions and culturally inclusive futures. 

During a six month period, we spent 200 hours on-site doing neighbor-to-neighbor outreach and hosting intergenerational engagement events. We translated our findings, community resources, crowd-sourced suggestions, and potential strategy in a series of reports for the Department of Public Transformation.


Roving Studio is a highly collaborative studio working at the intersection of architecture, art, social justice, public space, and in-depth research.
