Photos from “Not This”

basement 1

The Postgraduate Design show for this year, which ended on the 17th of September, took place in a very unique and unusual location for an exhibition, the basement of Shoreditch Town Hall. If you want to know how the graduates managed to make the place their own, we have uploaded a few photos of the show’s set-up on our Facebook page (click here).

We also have for you a few images of the work displays from MA Fashion students, courtesy of Ruth Jacob, who was on the course herself:

Were you at the show? Did you take photos? What did you think of the exhibition? We would love to hear how “NOT THIS” looked through your eyes. Send us any thoughts or images at n.barbu[at]gold.ac.uk. 

BA Design student wants to know your stories on luck

BA Design student Lukas Valiauga is about to start his third year, and he has sent us a call for entries to his project on luck:

“I am starting an investigation of what is luck. My aim is to collect stories of any type of luck,  and hear different myths, perceptions and superstitions people might hold upon it. By doing so, the project aims to understand elements that luck might be reconstructed of.”

You can submit your own story of luck to Lukas’s blog here , as well as read about the lucky event that gave him this idea.

The annual poster competition for the National Student Survey, organised by the National Union of Students, is getting closer to deadline: you can stil sign up to the contest until October 6. The winning student will receive a paid work placement with a London design firm, and their poster design will be developed and displayed at a national scale, making it an excellent portfolio builder.

To find out more about the competition and sign up, go to the NUS website.
