Have you ever wanted to live in an underwater house?  I know that I did as a kid after I saw the movie Hello Down There.  In the movie, a family goes down in the deep to live for 30 days in an environmental living project.  It has all the modern conveniences of their home on land.  They even invite a rock & roll band to come down and do a live recording.  Merv Griffin, as himself, even comes down for an underwater interview for his television show.  Oh, my, now I’m telling my age…

Well, the 1st Grade class at Paris Elementary designed their own version of an underwater house.  They drew an elevation, a floor plan, and even built a model of what their house would look like.  They came up with some really neat ideas.  It was fun to see them as they worked on their project.

By the way, if you haven’t seen the movie I was talking about, you need to…it’s really neat!

Well, the re-mix challenge is complete.  It was really hard to pick the top three because all of the re-mixes were good.  The kids even recorded their own voices and incorporated them into the re-mix.  We at Green Arch Design Group really enjoyed listening to them.

Duncan Chapel Remix Project

Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

We at Green Arch Design Group had the pleasure of working with the 5th Grade Challenge class of Duncan Chapel Elementary School a few weeks ago.  Below are some pictures of the students as they talk about different types of architecture.  Each student created a re-mix of an audio journal created by Clemson College Architectural student, Aaron Wells.  Aaron made these audio journals while studying in Europe. The students even added their own voices to their remixes.
