2020 CSC Ignite
Student Design Competition
The CSC Ignote Student Design Compeition was structured to bring together students with differing educational experience to work in a project team and to provide access to mentors and the client for advice and guidance on how the students can accomplish constructible, clearly communicated, effective design solutions under strict time constraints (48 hours).
With CSC Calgary Chapter mentors acting as “the bridge” between schools and students, the competition took place “live” and in-person at SAIT over the weekend of February 29 - March 1, 2020. Part of the competition rules dictate that each design team must take one part of their design concept and write a specification section along with evidence of “logged” help of industry mentors such as specification writers, architects, interior designers, or manufacturer representatives who will be available for consultation on each of the two days of the competition.
Team 4 - Raincense
My team consisted of three people, Chungha Kim (SAIT 1st year AT), Nyle Edlund (3rd year MRU Interior Design), and myself (SAIT 2nd year AT). We formed the team 4 - RainCense for this event. We assigned each member a role during the kick-off meeting, which was the first time we met each other. However, due to the time constraints of this project, we all contributed in all aspects of planning, design, specification writing, drafting, and presentation.
3rd place
Our team placed third overall in six teams, with $500 in winnings! It was a hectic weekend of grinding but ultimately worth it after all was said and done. Unfortunately due to COVID, we were not able to present our projects directly at the annual Awards Gala like we were looking forward to, however, a video presentation was made in place of it.
