The Ruth Clark Furniture Design Scholarship was established by the Carolinas Chapter to honor Ruth Clark, one of the chapter's founding members. The scholarship is open to currently enrolled post-secondary students whose emphasis is on residential furniture design. All applicants must have completed four design courses in post-secondary education at the time of application and be majoring in Interior Design or a related field. The scholarship is open to currently enrolled undergraduate and graduate post-secondary students majoring in design with a focus on residential upholstered and/or wood furniture design. Applicants must submit one design project example, which must include process details, descriptions and both in-process and final drawings (to include plan, elevation and/or 3-D drawings and renderings). Computer generated and/or hand work may be included. Group projects will not be accepted. Four additional individual images, with descriptions, detailed computer generated final design images and/or final design hand drawings and/or final design renderings and/or final built examples must also be submitted. Final built furniture images are encouraged for all examples, and applicants are asked that they provide color images.
