Kravet, Inc. Design of Distinction Competition for Materials and Methods Students

In this year’s Design of Distinction competition hosted by Kravet, Inc., students in the Materials and Methods course were challenged to design an original textile. Utilizing the aspects of a mythical creature of their choice, students were required to not only design a textile and detail its specifications, but also to provide a graphic representation of the pattern both as a 2D image and applied to a piece of upholstery from the Kravet line in a 3D rendering. Students used a variety of media to complete their designs. The top 11 entries, as determined by faculty judging, were sent to Kravet for a final decision.

Kravet awarded First Prize to Harrison Franke. The Runner Up was Kristen Rushlow.
