This studio will entail a thorough exploration of the wide range of manufacturing processes available to studio-based production. It will include but not be limited to metal fabrication, metal casting, metal spinning, CNC milling, laser cutting, water-jet cutting, fiberglass, vacuum forming, plywood molding, powder-coating, enameling, concrete casting, and ceramic and glass production. Students will design and implement small-scale product runs of furniture or functional objects using a variety of these techniques. Sponsorship from local manufacturers will allow an in depth exploration of a particular material and its associated manufacturing processes for the final project. Sustainable practices and "smart design" will underpin all of the work completed in the studio.
