Springs Creative and NC State create design collaboration

February 02, 2010

Students from the CAD for Textiles and Brand Management and
Marketing classes at NCSU worked together to design and market a line of
dorm room bedding. The students worked together in a real life situation to
create a marketable product in the retail bedding world. Challenge criteria
included innovation, functionality, environmental friendliness,
marketability and versatility of the look. At the end of the semester,
representatives from Springs Creative, NC State, Spoonflower, Cotton
Incorporated, VF Corporation and TC2 judged the entries during student
presentations. The first place winners received $1500; second place winners
received $1000; third place winners received $500; and the Honorable Mention
team received $200. Springs Creative made a donation to the College of
Textiles to support the contest. Winners include:
