A Design Student's Attempt at Making a Doorway
I remember my first group project. I had come here to become a design student and the first class that I took had me grouped up with two other design students. Our goal: Create a door using limited materials. Materials: Sixty feet total of lumber, 150 feet total of twine or burlap. We had 3 weeks to make all of these materials go together and create a doorway. Our professor wanted us to do more than just "create" a doorway. He wanted us to create a passage. He wanted us to really breakdown what a doorway meant and really create an experience with our doorway. With many countless hours of trial and error, we succeeded. I will say that the doorway assignment really pitted against the clock and we all came together successfully to create what I would say was a great doorway.
