Warming up.

So the warm weather continues and the early signs of spring seem to be with us. The good vibes continue with us in the Wood Workshop as students continue to make and create interesting things. Never a week goes by when we see somebody take on something totally new to them and its lovely to see the results. This past week has been no different. Below are some images taken from the past week.

This model is part of a competition that some of the MA Interior Design students have been asked to make proposals for, based in Millbank Tower.

This is the early stages of a Nigel Bents set Graphics project. It will be interesting to see how this turns out.

The Interior Design 1st years are starting a project recycling christmas trees. Could be interesting.

Marching on.

It's been a couple of weeks since we last posted but that is not to say there hasn't been anything to show. These past days have seen a flurry of activity as students from the FDA Interior Design course get well into their furniture project as well as the usual faces from Textiles and Fine Art. As the rain is seemingly replaced by some March spring like sunshine it looks like we are heading for a great couple of months ahead and the countdown to the final work being made. Below are some images taken from the past couple of weeks.
