The Urban Design Studio (UDS) recently hosted a team from Cyntergy, led by 2008 UDS alumnus Craig Longacre, to help build a 3D model of a home for severely injured veterans.
The team used the studio’s rapid prototyping tools to make the model for Homes for Our Troops, a non-profit organization that builds custom homes for veterans. The model will be used to show veterans the layout of their new houses.
The Cyntergy Team is shown above with the model, L to R: Nick White, Marcus Smith, Chelsea Oliphant, David Phelps, Craig Longacre,
