Nice article. The event looked awesome.
Definitely agree with you…
“The academic design environment is a bit of a paradox. It needs to be removed enough from industry that students feel safe to learn and explore. Yet it must be tethered to reality to enable students to transition into the professional world, where their apprenticeship and growth under seasoned, talented professionals will occur.”
Nicely put. It is a hard balance to achieve in design curriculum.
