Design I Student Work // Fall 2014

I wrote about my Design I class once on my blog, featuring their collaborative installation project. It was a great experience for them! (Click HERE to check it out.) The class consisted of 4 students and it was a nice, intimate classroom experience vs. teaching a class full of 15 students.

Before I start posting work that my Spring 2015 students are doing, I wanted to be sure to highlight some of their great work over the fall semester.  Below are some designs that were turned in. All have aspects to be improved upon for their portfolio, but overall I was very pleased with their results!
