Weighing In: Problem Solving Through Design Thinking
with Design Plus
Design Plus/Indigo Moose’s learning project with Science on Tap seeks to highlight the
massive connections between the fields of science and design as they continue to overlap
and inform one another; becoming further contiguous year after year. Design Plus will
offer a short presentation about our recent design efforts and some hands on, collaborative
activities that will engage critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Design Plus is a collaboration driven Architecture and Design firm with experience
throughout Public and Private Sector projects. Recent work such as the El Vado
development has focused on both the creation and reinvigoration of key cultural fixtures
throughout Albuquerque metro as the city comes into its own. The educational branch of
the firm, Indigo Moose seeks to break down barriers and encourage collaboration between
various disciplines. Math, art, engineering, population health, and architecture all build
upon one another in interdisciplinary project based classes instigated by Pop Up Design
Studios, elementary learning, summer camp studios, and teacher training.
