Bertie County, North Carolina is the poorest county in its state, with residents who are largely obese and an agricultural economy that is reliant on tobacco, cotton, peanuts, and soy. It's also home to Emily Pilloton and Studio H, a design/build program in a local public high school. This past year, Pilloton and partner Matthew Miller led a class of high school students in designing and building a much-needed (and quite beautiful) farmer's market pavilion for the area.Studio H construction timelapse from Project H Design on Vimeo.
It's great to see this follow-up story by Fast Company to the blog post and interview I conducted on Emily Pilloton's design work.
