Design Work in Progress
Where Ideas Take Shape
From sketches to sawdust, Work in Progress challenges students to transform creative ideas into tangible works of art and design. Blending craftsmanship, problem-solving, and collaboration, students move through every stage of the design process—from concept sketches and digital models to full-scale builds and polished finishes. Each project asks students to think like both artist and engineer: balancing form and function, structure and story. Whether crafting a functional art piece, prototype, or collaborative installation, students will gain real-world experience in design thinking, creative fabrication, and presentation—building the skills and confidence to bring their ideas to life.
