Just a few images of us preparing for New Designers and our stand at the exhibition in the Business Design Centre, Islington.
What can I say…, the set up went smoothly and we have had some great responses from visitors; professionals and public alike about our graduating students’ work. New Designers, if you don’t already know is THE national showcase for graduating students from around the UK and is the place to be to get noticed and meet companies looking to employ new design talent. As always we have been joined by old friends on the stand who work in the industry. Marek Reichman, Aston Martin design director and great friend to the course dropped by yesterday. I also had a couple of really interesting meetings with other industry partners which I am confident will lead to a rolling programme of one year internships starting next year (so watch this space) and some special guest speakers from the likes of Samsung. Anyway, there is still time to come along and… and… we even have a few complimentary tickets so e-mail if you are in London and would like to visit us. p.reid@tees.ac.uk (the show is open today and tomorrow – 5th, 6th July)
