Learning from one's peers has traditionally played a significant role in the education of design professionals. Grounded in the ideals of the atelier tradition, design education is predicated on the open exchange of ideas and constant critique of work in progress. Many of the most successful buildings for design education incorporate an open plan to encourage this type of interaction.In recent decades the design schools have been transformed and enriched through the introduction of powerful new digital tools. Students and instructors are finding that buildings which once provided an ideal environment for the exchange and cross-fertilization of ideas in design studios are less effective when student work is stored digitally. This case study traces the development of OpenD, an online environment designed to support the transparent exchange of ideas in design studios where the majority of student work is produced digitally.
