TechHub Design Collaboration

TECHHUB – Design and installation by Richard Raby & Lisa Dale

Five 2^nd year BA (Hons) Design & Visual Arts students were involved in a live collaborative project with TechHub in Manchester this month. Becki Derbsyhire, Lewis Hatton, Adam Bower, Lisa Dale and Richard Raby were asked to consider several spaces within TechHub, a new co-working space for tech entrepreneurs in the Northern Quarter, Manchester.

Their brief was to inspire members through typography in the meeting room, kitchen and other spaces on the ground floor. The students did an incredible job. TechHub founders Doug Ward and Shaun Gibson are thrilled with the work.

Founding TechHub member Stephen Biggs said, “I’m so impressed with the work that the students have done this week. They’ve bought the kitchen, lockers and meeting room to life in an inspirational, fun way. All of the students were a pleasure whilst working in the space – they did their course proud.” Not only have the students impressed TechHub, they’ve also been commissioned to do the same job elsewhere via the sharing of their work on Twitter. Overall, it was a very successful live project, one that we will be glad to repeat next year with other organisations
