Why this field?
Over 1 billion people live disabled everyday, yet adaptive design in a nascent field which effects us all. The built and designed environment is conventionally inadequate for the breadth of human experience. Very few people decide how the built environment is designed. Time to imagine and construct a more equitable society.
There are many challenges faced by our friends and family. These are within the scope and scale for anyone to participate in the design and manufacturing process to solve these problems. We exist to bring collective experiential knowledge into the built world.

What we do
MakeGood works with anyone to help solve any adaptive design and manufacturing challenges. This is done through a design project process, putting the need-knower at the center of the design team, and making sure they lead the scope and goals of the project. Utilizing digital design and fabrication tools, we empower those in our community to be curious about the built environment, and make it better for everyone.
MakeGood offers educational classes throughout the area to local schools, social action groups, and commercial design entities with a desire to MakeGood. These classes are focused on design thinking and adaptive making.
MakeGood supports Makers Making Change, Tikkun Olam Makers, and others to supply open-source adaptive technology to requesters in the Gulf Coast area.
