A Place for Dust explores the accumulation of dust in spaces through a series of experiments, collections, observations, and representations using the second-floor service elevator lobby in Parsons’ School of Constructed Environments as a testing site. The study resulted in site and design modifications that subtly remind residents about dust that collects in interiors, promoting healthier environments.
