TAS Design Evening

A Night of Style and Innovation: OLM Annual Design Evening

Our annual Design Evening celebrates the work of students across all areas of Technology and Applied Studies. This year we were inspired by the incredible talent of our students, with the exhibition of works as the culmination of months of hard work, creativity, and dedication from our technology students.

The static exhibition was a spectacular display of innovation across various disciplines, including graphic design, furniture design, product design, food technology, textiles, fashion illustration, architecture, interior design and digital media. The works showed students’ ability to address real-world problems with fresh perspectives and use high level production skills, creating everything from sustainable furniture to websites and app designs.

The fashion presentation was a vibrant and joyous showcase of student-designed apparel. Our Year 7 students showed their first garments made in the Textiles studios – pyjama shorts with the theme of their chosen bedtime story. The Year 9 and 10 Textiles students wore their stunning apparel sets, showing both their design and well developed garment construction techniques. The presentation’s finale saw our Year 11 Textiles embellished apparel projects modelled with the designers walking alongside their models. 

The Design Evening was a wonderful opportunity for students to share their projects with their families and the college community and celebrate their journey from concept to catwalk. We thank all staff, students and families for their support of this event.
