The students were required to make a prototype of a furniture product using Canadian wood (supplied by FoAID) which will be multi-functional, space saver as well should have 80% wood and only 20% hardware maximum.

The students started brainstorming on various ideas, their advantages, their restrictions etc. and finalised their concept in Mid September and produced a working model of the same in less than 5 days which had more than 95% wood. The faculty coordinator and student mentor for this event was Ms. Varsha Khetrapal Kumar.

Their unique idea, a fabulous working model along with their understanding of wood and functioning of the furniture piece bagged them this position.
