Exciting week ahead for Faculty of Informatics and Design
GLITZY: This award winning Jewellery Design Collection, which has already been featured on Top Billing, will be on show at the annual FID Year end Exhibition.
Monday, 28 November 2011
The Faculty of Informatics and Design is gearing up for the most exhilarating week of their calendar- the annual FID Open Day.
The event is the culmination of a year of hard work by staff and students and runs from tomorrow through to Friday.
The exhibit features work from our Graphic, Jewellery and Surface Design students along with the Fashion, Photography, Journalism, Architecture and Multi-Media departments.
It offers industry partners and media an opportunity to mingle with staff and students.
The event also gives the public and staff members a chance to see some of the most cutting-edge design concepts- many of which have won exclusive prizes throughout the year.
This includes the winning AngloPlat collection which our Jewellery Design lecturer Vassiliki Konstandakellis and students recently scored top prizes in.
The stunning designs which are based on Zulu culture were even featured on the lifestyle programme Top Billing.
The best designs from our Fashion Department like award-winning denim dresses will also be featured.
The event takes place at the Cape Town campus’ Multipurpose Hall and starts at 17.30 with an award ceremony taking place shortly after.
