Based on a True Story: FINE 201 Exhibition | Stratford School of Interaction Design and Business

"There’s a magical moment in a design studio when it hums with activity, a creative flow that’s infectious. Late September, I walked into FINE 201 after a coffee break and found students sprawled across their desks, the floor, and the hall—every work surface covered with cardboard, X-Acto knives, tape, and paint. The music was pumping. Some students were laughing, while others appeared laser-focused. And that’s when I realized the class worked. The students were no longer students, they were designers." - Instructor Terry O'Neill

Based on a True Story aka BOATS! showcases projects from FINE 201 Storytelling in Design—a studio course that applied the strategies and tactics of narrative non-fiction to the craft of making.
