Meet Marie Katrine

A year ago she applied to Kolding School of Design for the Textile and Fashion programme and was accepted.

Here she tells about her way into Kolding School of Design:

What made you want to study design?
I believe a design degree gives you a good foundation for being able to influence the world in a sustainable and – hopefully – positive direction. Moreover, I’ve always had a strong desire to create, experiment and improve which I’m allowed to every day at Kolding School of Design.

What were your qualifications?
Before I was accepted at the school I spent two semesters at the Scandinavian Design College. This opened my eyes to the many aspects of the design profession and especially textile design.

What do you like most about Kolding School of Design?
I chose Kolding School of Design because it has a very hands-on approach to the design profession. Being allowed to experiment, play and explore is important to me and I enjoy being able to immerse myself in a certain type of material and having the time and the opportunity to get to know the material in-depth. The open and social environment in and around the school is also important to me.

What is your best tip for those who want to apply to Kolding School of Design?
It’s hard to give tips in terms of the admission. However, I guess the most important thing is that you can see yourself in the assignment that you have to complete and that you give it your all.
