"We have an opportunity to do something here that was done only once before—at the Bauhaus," said David C. Levy, executive dean of the Parsons School of Design. Recalling the esthetic collaboration of the famous Weimar School of art and architecture, David Levy said the goal of the new Design Resource Center at Parsons is to provide a meeting ground for young talent and mass-market manufacturers. Although it actually opened in 1977, the center is still in an embryonic stage.
