Talent from Harrington College of Design on Thursdays!
March 26th, 2009. Categories: Design Ideas
This is a final Interior Design Thesis presentations in movie form, from different semesters and different students. In their final thesis presentation the student needs to show all the skills he learned at Harrington College. The students can choose a 30-50,000 square foot project of their choice for the portfolio. They are writing a client profile, collect information, get inspirations, research the direction of their project, create a concept, do the diagrams for a program, build a model, sketch, develop the project in floor plans, create sections, developed the space, 3 dimensional elements (like stairs/openings in the space) and do the renderings of the space. The students are writing an environmental statement of the project. They choose furniture, colors, contrasts, materials, and create a detail. The Students have to ’sell ‘the project to the teacher and the critics and present their final project with an impressive presentation.

Meet Peter Klick, an instructor at Harrington, with his wife Dianne. Peter is always eager to share ideas about the world with his students. He teaches experimental design. The word on the street is Peter is a designer who thinks outside of the box and encourages his student to do the same. Kudos to educators who set and live by this example.

Students attentively listen when they meet with vendors in the design trade. Harrington introduces students to many companies. This practice is so they become familiar with the sources and that will be important for them in the real world!
