Mesh Design Build Studio [www.MESHdbs.com] is an architectural think tank, an entrepreneurial center, a job training and mentor program for emancipated foster youth, an internship program for local architecture students, and a source of environmental innovation working towards the development of community-building structures. Our goal is to influence policymakers, inspire future leaders, teach sensitivity towards our planet, empower communities through active participation, encourage organic development within the public realm, create a legacy that embodies what is 'today', and inspire the general public to believe great things can happen with hard work and the right resources. Our partners include: First Place For Youth: www.facebook.com/FirstPlaceforYouth and UC Berkeley School of Architecture: https://www.facebook.com/pages/College-of Environmental-Design-UC-Berkeley/205796512790649]
