The Wallace Collection’s Design Challenge Workshop

At Venue
Enjoy this hands-on workshop from The Wallace Collection where your students will design a new piece of furniture in response to a specific brief.

Key Info

Take up our challenge to design a new piece of furniture. Your students will experience each stage of the design process and learn how design problems were solved by great makers of the past. Students will look critically at a range of objects in the museum, then work together in groups to compete in a design challenge back in the studio. Students will develop their own ideas in response to a specific brief, test their concepts against a specification, and present their design to the whole class.
