What happens when you turn Mrs. Julie Kennedy and her Interior Design class loose in your new office space and conference room? They take two rooms surrounded by plain block walls and turn them into an office and a conference room that is welcoming for students and community members.
So how did the students come up with their plans? First, they interviewed the client, Ms. Green, to see what she needed. They wanted the office to represent her and what she liked also which includes succulent plants and macrame. They measured the room and discussed what furniture they should include. They rearranged the furniture on their graph paper to see what worked best and to maximize the space that was available.
The students selected colors to match Iowa Central Community College and then went shopping both in person and online. Once the furniture started arriving, it all started coming together.
Interior design students who played a key role in this project are: Makayla Byerly, Rachel Gordon, Lucas Jablonski, and Brooke Williams.
Ms. Green stated, “Mrs. Kennedy and her students created the perfect office and conference room for our Greene County Career Academy. Students feel comfortable and welcome stopping into visit and talk about our career pathways. I am so happy with their work!”
