Indigenous student village: housing option for indigenous post-secondary students

This practicum project uses a holistic approach for the culturally sensitive design of a housing option for Indigenous post-secondary students. This project addresses the role that interior design can play in creating a supportive work-live environment. The proposed student accommodations will differ from what is offered at the University of Manitoba campus by incorporating design elements that will: reflect Indigenous cultural values; use a holistic approach to space planning; offer flexible space options that supports community ties and relationship building; create designs that speak to the local cultures; and honour the past students of the Canadian residential school system.
