| Final projects at FSU's Graduate Furniture Design |
Professor Marlo Ransdell Ph.D., IDEC and her student Amanda Cleveland show us their final projects.
Graduate Furniture Design: Students were engaged for six weeks in designing and fabricating two full-scale furniture pieces constructed from one 4’x8’ sheet of 3/4” maple
plywood. Criteria for the project were: create two designs in Rhino
software that could be CNC manufactured and flat pack shipped, have the ability
to be constructed with little to no tools and hardware, and minimize material
waste. Students were given no limit on the number of scale models to produce and
had classroom access to all prototyping equipment (additive, subtractive, and
laser) for small-scale prototype production. All prototypes
created were evaluated for form, function, and material application and
photographed by students. Final full-scale prototypes were
developed on a 4’x8’ CNC router at the Facility for Arts Research at Florida
State University and evaluated.
