Course Refelections: Darlene

The second part of this class, implementing the window designs, has been so much fun. Katie, Asri, Maurice, Jennifer, and I have been working on Vastu's window for the past couple of weeks. We went down to Vastu to check out some of the store's fabrics and visualize what the design will look like in the space. We went to a local embroidery shop and talked about our design with the owner. It was great to find a place on 14th street that could help us out. Since then, we've been doing a lot of research and gathering materials. We were so excited when Knoll graciously offered us the fabric of our choice at a really great price. Shawn, one of the graphic students in our class, helped us out by perfecting the digital furniture images for the embroidery. So it's safe to say our window is well on its way to being installed! It's been great working on 14th Street and coming together as a team to make these window designs work!
