Hollow Core Door Design Competition

Designers were challenged to create a design concept using a single, standard sized, wood hollow core door. Mechanical and adhesive fasteners could be utilized in the design, along with door hardware and finishes. Concept materials were to be found at the Rebuilding Exchange, with the exception of adhesive fasteners.

Winners were announced at the High Design Holiday Party on December 9.
