Oklahoma City-based KFOR News recently highlighted the OU Interior Design Furniture Design Studio on its "Is this a Great State or What?" segment.
Throughout this semester, students in the furniture design course taught by Chelsea Holcomb have taken their pieces from concept to drawings to cardboard model to full-size, completed pieces. The students have utilized the free tools and materials available to them at the Creating_Making Lab in order to construct their pieces. Most students started the course with little to no knowledge of using tools or creating full size furniture, but now understand not only the design process, but also the construction process behind their pieces.
The students' work was exhibited at MAINSITE Gallery in Norman. The exhibition is made possible by the generous sponsorship of Henry Home Interiors of Norman. Learn more about the Furniture Design Studio.
