Ms. Wilder and Ms. Lehman’s project was selected as the best design from hundreds of entries submitted from around the world. A formal public announcement was made in the Spring 2017 issue of QUAD, the IIDA student newsletter. In addition to being highlighted in QUAD, the students would receive a cash prize and will be featured on a Design Matters podcast as well as on the IIDA website.
The IIDA student design competition celebrates original design and rewards individuals and/or teams whose projects demonstrate innovative, functional design solutions that have a positive environmental and human impact, while allowing emerging professionals the opportunity to showcase their work and fresh design ideas to professionals working in the field.
