Harrington Interior Design Students Featured on HGTV

Ten senior students in interior design at Harrington College of Design were featured in episodes of "Designer Finals," the popular weekly home decorating program now appearing on HGTV, the Home and Garden Television cable channel.

The student designers were selected by the program producers, who interviewed candidates from leading design schools across the country. Each student had two days and a budget of $2,000 to redesign a room for a volunteer homeowner-client. The student, in consultation with a Harrington faculty mentor, drew up their plan for the room renovation, purchased the materials, hired contractors and oversaw the remodeling process. The entire process was filmed for the TV program.
