Amber Thompson
Amber Thompson is our fourth Product Design placement student and joins us for 1 year from Nottingham Trent University.
Here she tells us a little bit about her experience with us.
“My time at Whitemeadow so far has been invaluable. Working alongside experienced designers has given me insight into commercial furniture design- an area of design I had limited knowledge of before starting my placement with Whitemeadow. Working within such an established company, for various clients, has introduced me to a large variety of design styles and disciplines.
The fast-paced studio environment has allowed me to greatly develop my knowledge of furniture design and manufacture, in addition to furthering my skills on various design software, such as: Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom and Solidworks.
This placement has allowed me to feel like a valued member of Whitemeadow’ s design team. Being responsible for things such as product and showroom photography, has enabled me to feel appreciated as an employee, whilst also developing my skills doing something I love”.
