The Vertical Workshop
The aim of my design is to create a space where Vertical farming and Flo skatepark have been combined to create a unique, hybrid company. From exploring the processes for each of the clients, this led to the hybridised company, The Vertical Workshop. This space allows customers to learn about how a skateboard is made. Through this process, wood is grown using vertical farming techniques and this material is then used in the workshop to create a skateboard. Customers are able to learn about vertical farming as well as create their own skateboard.

BA (Hons) Interior Architecture and Design
Interior Architecture and Design at NTU has an incredibly long and rich history; with Interior Decoration taught at the first ever UK Art school, in the Waverley building during the 1950s.
Over the last 70 years, our programme has grown and adapted to meet the requirements of industry and social change, respond to trends, and deliver a degree which encourages students to look, think, critically appraise, and understand local and world issues amongst the principles of design.
We are a validated degree programme in which our students can join the Chartered Society of Designers, and we are members of the Interior Educators network. Our dedicated design studio in the Grade II* listed Arkwright building enables a studio culture which reflects professional practice, in a dynamic environment that challenges everyone to work collaboratively, share experiences and experiment with ideas.
