DEVELOPER NAME Introductions: Team members? Your organization (non-profit, for profit, areas of impact)? Type of development? One thing your team has expertise in/can contribute to the conversation (i.e. experience working on sustainable projects, etc.) Use one picture to describe your organization – address questions in the notes section.
CONTEXT: Region Local context map: Provide a neighborhood map and neighborhood photographs to show how the project fits in urban/neighborhood scale/typology/character, and how it connects to transportation, parks, schools and other amenities. Neighborhood scale (what is the immediate neighborhood/ community like? What features make it distinct? Who lives here? i.e., demographic trends, history of site, etc. Is it part of a redevelopment zone or larger initiative? Insert context maps and other images – address questions in the notes section. Use multiple slides as needed. You can use screenshots from Google maps if helpful or use other existing images. To use Google maps, use the Printscreen key on your keyboard to capture the map, then control + v to paste the images into PowerPoint.
CONTEXT: State Local context map: Provide a neighborhood map and neighborhood photographs to show how the project fits in urban/neighborhood scale/typology/character, and how it connects to transportation, parks, schools and other amenities. Neighborhood scale (what is the immediate neighborhood/ community like? What features make it distinct? Who lives here? i.e., demographic trends, history of site, etc. Is it part of a redevelopment zone or larger initiative? Insert context maps and other images – address questions in the notes section.

Neighborhood scale (what is the immediate neighborhood/ community like? What features make it distinct? Who lives here? i.e., demographic trends, history of site, etc. Is it part of a redevelopment zone or larger initiative? Images of surrounding neighborhood, existing buildings, etc. The more the Design Team understands your site and surroundings, the more grounded their input will be.
CONTEXT: Community Local context map: Provide a neighborhood map and neighborhood photographs to show how the project fits in urban/neighborhood scale/typology/character, and how it connects to transportation, parks, schools and other amenities. Neighborhood scale (what is the immediate neighborhood/ community like? What features make it distinct? Who lives here? i.e., demographic trends, history of site, local culture etc. Is it part of a redevelopment zone or larger initiative? Details that will inform what will make a good design solution: Who lives here? i.e., demographic trends, history of site, local culture, climate? Is it part of a redevelopment zone or larger initiative? Use images to tell your narrative as much as possible.
YOUR PROJECT NAME What is your project mission and prioritized goals? What is your project? Development type (mixed use/single family/multi-family/neighborhood). What are the major challenges you face to implementing your mission?
PROJECT MISSION What is your project mission and prioritized goals? What is your project? Development type (mixed use/single family/multi-family/neighborhood). What are the major challenges you face to implementing your mission? Heavily lean on project images, include as many as you have. What is your project mission and prioritized goals? What is your project? Development type (mixed use/single family/multi-family/neighborhood). What are the major challenges you face to implementing your mission?
TIMELINE Move orange marker to where you are in the process Is there anything of note influencing your project at this point in time? Where are you in the process? Is there anything of note that influences your project at this juncture?
STAKEHOLDERS Who are the major stakeholders that influence your project? What do we need to know about them? (i.e., future occupants/desired community/income bracket/other demographic information/anything unique or special about this population) Community Partnership: How did you (or do you plan) work with the community in your process? What was that process like? How did you overcome any challenges? (HW assignment from Webinar 2) Who are the major stakeholders that influence your project? What do we need to know about them? (i.e., future occupants/desired community/income bracket/other demographic information/anything unique or special about this population) Community Partnership: How did you (or do you plan) work with the community in your process? What was that process like? How did you overcome any challenges?
FINANCIALS Financial information about the project (budget, funders, unique aspects)
REQUIREMENTS/CONSTRAINTS Planning use regulations? Historic preservation? LEED? Net Zero? Parking?
DESIGN NARRATIVE Insert enough slides to include any of the following that you have (see notes section as well): Site plan Massing studies Plans (landscape, site, masterplan, phasing, zoning) Unit floor plan (explain features and occupants’ quality of life) Elevations (why do they look the way they do?) Sections Renderings / Perspectives How is the building situated on its site and why?) Think about framing some of your narrative around the following topics, as presented in the curriculum: site, landscape, massing, systems, materials, program, circulation, units, and cultural elements. What are you most excited about in terms of the design or design potential?
DESIGN CHALLENGES In one minute, what are your biggest design related challenges that you would like to work through during this charrette?
