Materials Lab

The Materials Lab provides space, equipment, and trained personnel to assist design students in their work. Design ideas that originate in the studio can be implemented in three dimensions in the Materials Lab. Full-scale working prototypes and scaled models can be made to present design proposals.

Though College of Design students must provide their own materials for projects, the Materials Lab includes a complete wood shop, metal shop, paint booth and laser-cutting machines. The lab employs a range of equipment from traditional hand tools to modern CNC equipment. College of Design students may work in a range of materials including plastic, concrete, and fabrics. Power- and hand-tools are available for checkout by students currently enrolled in Design courses.
