Prism Design Lab provides youth in the Durham - Chapel Hill area with a space for exploration and creative expression.

Prism welcomes young people from all backgrounds, with a focus on those who currently lack representation in the design professions.

Our young creatives are equipped with the tools needed to shape their built environment through architecture, art and community action.

Light, which can go unnoticed,
passes through a prism and
emerges on the other side
in colors that are bright, clear
and cannot be ignored.
