Habitat for Humanity

Last weekend, some of my classmates and I volunteered with Palouse Habitat for Humanity. I spent most of the day installing fiberglass insulation, and then spent a bit of time putting up sheetrock. It was a great experience! I learned a lot about the process of building a house. What I thought was most interesting was how similar building a house is to the interior design projects I've been doing in school-- like cutting against a straight edge and using a T-square to measure. It was great to be able to interact with the family who will be living in the home, the different workers on site, and my interior design classmates.
