Charrette


is a term describing a period of intense design activity, often immediately preceding a deadline.

a little history:

the term “charette” (little cart) appeared in the late 1800’s. architecture students at the ecole des beaux-arts in paris who needed to rush their designs to their instructors, placed their drawings on a cart which was called a charette. later the word broadened in meaning and came to describe any intense, short-term design project. today the word is used by the architectural and design community at large to describe any intense, on-the-spot design effort.
fml, i’ve been archi-totured. i am charrette-ing all nights at studio.
