Submitted boards were reviewed, and students were interviewed to discuss their concept before the two judges, Mariette Himes Gomez, ASID, and Charles E. Pavarini III, Allied ASID. The judges chose Anastasia Berestova from the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT). Her winning design will come to life and be on display for the month of March in the lobby of the D&D building. The individual challenge was an excellent opportunity for students to become acquainted with a variety of showrooms, form relationships with staff, and create a successful, dynamic design within very tight parameters.
The Student Group Challenge created some friendly competition among New York Metro interior design schools when teams of five students were set to the task of creating a functional yet visually appealing vignette by pulling pieces from a pool of pre-selected furniture within a one-hour time limit.
Out of the four teams competing in the challenge, the Art Institute (AI) of New York was crowned the winner by the panel of judges: Harry Daniell, Harry Daniel Interiors; Jacqueline Hosford, ASID; Benjamin Huntington, ASID; and Julia Noran, Editor at Large. The students instrumental in creating the winning vignette were Erin Conley, Carlos Coronado, Jessica Williams, Maritz Hevia, and Kristine Boyd. AI’s design concept was to "Create a cohesive space while allowing the two areas to work separately. We were given neutral colors to start with and took a Southwestern-inspired approach incorporating warm oranges and natural materials.”
