Jim Wasley, UWM Institute of Ecological Design

Works of SARUP_UWM Institute of Ecological Design
Three years of design ideas for ecological and economic restoration in Milwaukee’s Inner Harbor.
The Inner Harbor Project has involved over sixty design studios and classes, and produced a dozen M.Arch thesis projects. It has involved student work from UW-Madison and IIT. And it has led to several spin-off projects that have the potential to make real, as demonstration projects, some of the ecological ambitions of the Inner Harbor Project as a whole. This exhibition surveys the results, describes proposed demonstration projects, and concludes with a vision of the Inner Harbor’s ecological and economic restoration.

Furniture + Architectural Interiors
Founded by Jesse Damrow (SARUP alum) in 2009, Joint Effort Studio is on a mission to create heirloom quality original modern sculptural furnishings that are accessible to a broad market. Formal training and practice in the field of architecture, and years of collaboration and training under master carpenters has converged into a love affair for wood and design. Each piece is designed and hand built right here in Wisconsin. Joint Effort is a LEED certified operation striving whenever possible to source locally, and from responsibly harvested forests. Always handmade, always in America.
