Intern Spotlight: Addie Welch

Addie Welch has always loved creative thinking and design.  She Addie Welch lives in Robbins, NC with her husband and son and is soon expecting the arrival of a baby girl in August.  After a degree from Sandhills Community College and working as a draftsman for several years, she wanted to work on the creative side of the industry and knew that Randolph Community College was the perfect fit.  Her career at RCC has opened the door to a great opportunity work as an intern with RCC Interior Design Graduate, Marta Mitchell Interiors in Greensboro, NC.

           

It is an exciting experience everyday at Marta’s office, making it exciting to see what comes next.  Over the past couple months Addie has had the opportunity to assist with almost every stage of design.  She began by assisting in initial measurements and creating a CAD drawing.  Marta has also given her the opportunity to visit job sites and see the installation process.  Currently she is working on two very fun projects working on the selection process.  One project is an entire house that has been renovated and other clients are moving into a new space.  Addie has had the opportunity to make the furniture selections and assist with picking out fabrics for both projects.  She is also in the process of developing 3d models of both spaces and hopes she is there to see the actual project come to completion.

Marta as been a great supervisor to Addie and has really taken this opportunity to teach her as much as possible about the field.  Addie is grateful to have the chance to learn from such a distinguished designer with a unique style and is excited what the future will hold.

During her internship, she has been a part of several projects. She assisted with the fabric and finish selections, floor plans, and space planning for a tradeshow in April. She has organized in the company by making a spreadsheet for the finishes of veneers and laminates by supplier, brand, product, and sales. Not only does OFS Brands strive to accommodate their customers every day, they also prepare for NeoCon (The National Exposition of Contract Furnishings), one of the largest tradeshows for contract furnishings with 700 showrooms and exhibits in Chicago, Illinois. OFS Brands has a large showroom that displays their new products for each of their brands. Lauren has assisted Jessica with the new products that are being shown for Loewenstein by helping choose the fabrics and finishes, assisting with photography for new products, and developing brochures and the website.

OFS Brands corporate office is located in Huntingburg, Indiana. Lauren had the opportunity to go to Indiana, tour the office, manufacturer plants, and a showroom. She also sat in on meetings about new finishes, plans, and deadlines for NeoCon coming up in June.  Lauren has gained a lot of knowledge of contract furniture and has truly enjoyed being a part of OFS Brands.

 

Intern Spotlight: Casey Huneycutt

Casey Huneycutt is currently interning at Stanly Interiors in Albemarle, North Carolina and is under the guidance of Interior Designer, Angela Mabe.  Mabe, also a graduate from Randolph Community College, has taught Huneycutt the important of strong communication skills and building client-designer relationships.

Huneycutt is responsible for assisting in the showroom by organizing materials and finishes by price point and working with clients to determine their needs and aesthetics for product suggestion.  She has also made site visits to clients' homes to make design decisions.  She recently completed a project for a client's kitchen, by suggesting a nature tile that would be harmonious with a pre-existing accent color.  The client was very satisfied with the end result and the design made the accents pop in the room. 

Casey has learned a great deal of information from Angela and this has continued her interests in Interior Design.  After graduation in May Casey plans to seek employment.

Intern Spotlight: Kaylan Provence

Under the direction of owners Sandra Childs and Terrie Gibson, Provence has learned many refinishing and design skills to include:  sewing, faux painting, floral arranging, lighting.  She is also responsible for furniture identification and running the retail space which she space plans and visually merchandises.

“Since I have been working, I have gained so much knowledge and experience from Sandra and Terrie.  The experience here is unforgettable and rewarding."   Sandra Childs has stated that Provence has a good eye for design and many of her designs have sold very quickly. 

Provence just recently refinished and upholstered a 3 panel room divider that needed some additional "style".  As for her next project, she will be painting a client’s kitchen cabinets that involves speckling, sanding, painting and waxing to receive that vintage look the client requests. She is looking forward to getting started on this project and putting her skills to the test.

After graduation in May, Kaylan plans to attend the Interior Design Program at Salem College.
