View source for Graphics Products Studio Example 1

Here students will work in paper, card and a range of light modelling materials, including foam board and plastics, to create graphics products - eg packaging, point of sale displays, architectural models.


This will be the main workspace used for GCSE DT: Graphics Products courses but are also lightly equipped sufficient to be used for general D&T up to KS3 - and beyond for aspects of Product Design courses.


There may be a storeroom adjacent plus doors into the area and sometimes a door to the outside.
