On Saturday, female architects and designers from IAA and Hollis+Miller worked with Girl Scouts to complete their Cookie Construction final build at Crown Center. For the past several months, Team Galaxy Girls has been working to design a 3-D space camp – complete with stars, planets and a rocket – made entirely out of cookie boxes. The structure was out of this world! (Get it?)

The purpose of the Cookie Construction program is to offer young girls a glimpse into architecture and design professions, and equip them with the proper skill set to pursue related interests and career options. All those involved from our office had a great time working with the Girl Scouts to develop this very cool concept, and learn a few skills along the way. Way to go Team Galaxy Girls!
