The 3D Design Program aims to prepare the students to be a three-dimensional designer with a significant portfolio of works with a major emphasis on space planning and object design. We intend to form well-rounded professionals who are capable of understand any scope and scale of design project, including, but not limited to: household objects, light fixtures, sculptural objects, consumer products for mass-production, furniture, design installations, interiors, videos and animations.

Five University of Iowa 3D Design BFA students were awarded the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) Travel Award to present their design research at ICFF!

Four students, James Low, Jenny Jin, Kelsey Jons, and Sarah Dockery-Jackson presented their design research as part of the University of Iowa booth in the Schools Showcase.

James presented his flat pack dorm storage and his hand-woven pillow.

Jenny presented her flat pack dorm set including a side table and a desk organizer.

Kelsey presented her hand-upholstered non-traditional soft seat.

Sarah presented her welded metal stool, 3D-printed lamp, and hand-woven pillow.

Julia Correia presented her non-traditional lounge chair in the Launch Pad section, which highlights independent designers. Her other work, a 3D-printed lamp and hand-woven pillow, were featured in the school booth.

All five students are immensely grateful to the Office of Undergraduate Research for awarding travel funds to them! They are so glad to have the opportunity to present their work, make connections, and represent the University of Iowa!
