  • Description:   In the past three decades, more than 10 million people have flocked to Shenzhen, China, creating a dynamic financial hub, but erasing its cultural identity. At a design camp there last November, graduate student Arielle Levy '13 and student collaborators created a design competition to help the city's youth define their Shenzhen. Levy, who studies design history, theory, and criticism, was the only American of 11 international students and more than 60 Chinese students invited to the 10-day event, which featured lectures, conferences, seminars, workshops, field trips, and discussions intended to encourage multicultural and experimental design, according to organizers. Levy said the city's young and fresh feeling led her team to create the competition.
