Audrey Assad
BIO
Audrey Assad is a multidisciplinary designer working in wood, textiles and metal. Audrey holds a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Painting and is a recent graduate of the Furniture Design Program at Sheridan College. Her background as a painter has led her to explore unconventional furniture forms through traditional and digital craft techniques. For her, idea generation is the most compelling time of the design process. Raw ideas represent possibility and she is inspired by how that rawness can be conveyed through furniture and objects.
CAPSTONE PROJECT
STUDIOWARES
Studiowares is a grouping of designed and fabricated objects inspired by studio environments and processes. Through form, materiality and scale, I hope to convey studio processes by creating objects that have raw qualities. In this context, I define rawness as something that communicates an idea of a process or design. Rawness represents possibility as opposed to finality. By presenting raw objects, I hope to establish an understanding of studio processes and the environments in which they are made, for the viewer.
