Bulletin-2009-0409.Pdf Next Stop, Milan! Industrial Design Grad Student to exhibit at Milan Design Week. Article by David Hunt t’s a networking opportunity to die for. Or, in the case of NC State graduate student Michael Rall, to design for. It’s the Salone Internazionale del Mobile, also known as IMilan Design Week, and it’s the most important international design event of the year. The 24-year-old Rall, who’s never been off the East Coast, is packing his bags for an all- expenses-paid trip to the design fair April 22-27 courtesy of LG Surfaces. “I can’t wait,” he says. “It’s going to be great.” Actually, it’s going to be a lot more than that. Rall, who graduates in December with a master’s degree in industrial design, gets to rub elbows in Milan with just about anybody who’s anybody in the world of product design – or at least the top couple of hundred thousand designers, manufacturers, buyers, distributors and salespeople in the industry. While he’s at it, he’ll have the opportunity to exhibit a design prototype of his own at Zona Tortona’s “That’s Design!” show, which draws more than 80,000 designers and exhibitors from around the globe every year. And he’ll round out the week by appearing at a press conference to present his design concepts to journalists from media outlets like Metropolitan magazine. Talk about real-world experience. Rall earned the trip by blowing away the competition in the LG Surfaces Beyond Student Design Challenge last month. The contest, which was open to students at five of the nation’s top design schools, required participants to come up with new product ideas using the company’s acrylic surface material. Today, LG Surfaces is a major producer of kitchen countertops. But to stay economically healthy, the manufacturer is looking for new ways to expand its product line. The contest guidelines were strict. Not only did the design concepts have to be interesting, they had to be easy and affordable to manufacture. And, with a nod to the Bulletin | April 9, 2009 2 Rall’s design incorporates a hidden bracket to give the illusion that the nightstand is balanced on a single leg.

  • Raleigh, North Carolina
    Coordinates: 35°46′N 78°38′W Raleigh, North Carolina Raleigh (/ˈrɑːli/; RAH-lee)[6] is the capital of the state of North Carolina and the seat of Wake County in the United States. Raleigh is known as the "City of Oaks" for its many Raleigh, North Carolina [7] oak trees, which line the streets in the heart of the city. The city covers a land area of State capital city 147.6 square miles (382 km2). The U.S. Census Bureau estimated the city's population as City of Raleigh 474,069 as of July 1, 2019.[4] It is one of the fastest-growing cities in the country.[8][9] The city of Raleigh is named after Walter Raleigh, who established the lost Roanoke Colony in present-day Dare County. Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of the Research Triangle together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The name of the Research Triangle (often shortened to the "Triangle") originated after the 1959 creation of Research Triangle Park (RTP), located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and their universities. The Triangle encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Cary Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013.[10] The Raleigh metropolitan statistical area had an estimated population of 1,390,785 in 2019.[11] Most of Raleigh is located within Wake County, with a very small portion extending into Durham County.[12] The towns of Cary, Morrisville, Garner, Clayton, Wake Forest, Apex, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Wendell, Zebulon, and Rolesville are some of Raleigh's primary nearby suburbs and satellite towns.
