THREE STAGES

Room to explore.
Time to make.

01 / REST & RESEARCH

Begin in Chengdu.

Allow time to recover from travel, meet the team and start with questions, sketches and an initial prototype.

02 / EXPLORE SICHUAN

Observe before you design.

Planned experiences include panda observation, Bipenggou nature, supervised camping activities, respectful community exchange and the Emei area. Host agreement, availability, weather and age-appropriate planning determine the final activities.

03 / BUILD & SHARE

Return to the project.

Plan approximately three full project days in Chengdu for redesign, building, programming, testing and a final showcase. Departure is a separate day.
