Where i work with Mitch and Ayesha

This series of blog posts takes an insider look at the workspaces of Loughborough Design School’s final year students. Inspired by Design Milk [www.design-milk.com/column/where-i-work] it offers a unique insight into the personalities and lives of our designers.

Name: Mitch Leigh

Course: Industrial Design and Technology (BA)

Final Year Project Title: Facilitating innovation within the creative workspace.

“I like having things that I can be easily inspired by, so I like having lots of things on the walls. This is all stuff I’ve just done because it’s quite nice to do creative things which aren’t part of the course.”

“I’ve stuck up previous projects, not because.. well some of them I’m proud of, but mainly so I can better myself. It’s something to aim for.”

Name: Ayesha Parmar

Course: Product Design and Technology (BSc)

Final Year Project Title: Reducing the risk of rape for women in rural India who defecate in the open.

“I think I’m neat. Messy is too stressful… to be fair, a good organised desk always makes you feel better.”

“I always have to have a diary next to me… I like to plan my days in it. That’s probably the only thing I take everywhere.”
