Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Interior design products such as graph paper, fine-point Sharpies, and stencils play a critical role in helping students develop industry-relevant skills. Graph paper allows students to accurately scale and draft floor plans, which is a foundational skill in professional interior design. Fine point Sharpies help students render clear, detailed line work and annotations, simulating the kind of precision expected in client presentations and design boards. Stencils offer guidance in creating consistent shapes and symbols used in standard design schematics.

These tools build students’ technical proficiency, creativity, and attention to detail, directly preparing them for real-world design tasks.
