Students in the temporary environments class, taught by notable design firm Moorhead & Moorhead, explored recycled paperboard supplied by The Homasote Company for an installation at WantedDesign 2013.

In May 2013 WantedDesign hosted an international student charette during NY Design Week.

 

A temporary interior environment for the workshop was created by students who explored the potential of Homasote panel; a board made of 100% recycled paper.

Editors at the design show discovered the installation: “Student projects always seem to blow our minds…”
