Congratulations to Waterloo Architecture undergraduate students Matthew Lam and Benjamin Ma, who received an honourable mention for their joint project Duality at the FORM 2020 Student Innovation Competition by Formica.

To participate, students in interior design and architecture programs were invited to submit the design of a piece of furniture under the theme "Blurred Lines," examining the intersection of nature and technology.

This year, for the first time, Canadian students have ranked First, Second and Fourth place (honourable mention) in this prestigious North-American competition which attracted 150 submissions. "We are very pleased with the enthusiasm that many students and teachers from Canada had for the FORM 2020 Student Innovation Competition. We are particularly delighted that students from our country distinguished themselves this year to obtain the two first places and an honourable mention," said Johanne Levesque, Marketing Director at Formica Canada.
