We are gearing up for final review on Monday! Check out some of the amazing work being produced!

We had a wonderful midterm review on Friday! Thank you to our reviewers— Irene Keil, Cordula Roser-Gray, Seth Welty, Andrew Liles, Matt Raybon and Eric Lynn!

Happy fall break! We had a wonderful short week in studio. We invited the second years to have a sit test with us, and discussed the first round of full scale chairs! Very excited for our midterm review on Friday, October 20th!

Modular chairs. Chairs influenced by cacti. DNA influenced chairs. Chairs influenced by Van Gogh’s brushstrokes.
