Interior Design student, Tim Yao, selected as part of Future100, designating them as a top interior design student in the United States and Canada

Friday, April 01, 2022

A mockup of a stone temple with a level that has falling water, and open main floor. It is surrounded by nature.
Yao dives deep into the relevance and meaning of spiritual practices in contemporary society to inform the design of a temple that helps people process their grief at losing their loved ones.

Following the debut of the Future100 program in 2021, Metropolis set out once again this year to designate the top graduating architecture and interior design students in the United States and Canada. The program, sponsored by CannonDesign, Daltile, Formica, Interface, Keilhauer, Rapt, Sherwin-Williams, and SOM, invited the most talented students from the class of 2022 to apply. The final 100 are featured below. 

Nominated by their instructors and mentors, these 56 interior design and 44 architecture students were chosen by the Metropolis team. They hail from some of the best schools in North America, from Tuskegee University to California College of the Arts, and call anywhere from Orlando, Florida, to Toronto home. A diverse group—with many identifying as female, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, or neurodiverse—they are leaders on their campuses, advocating for equity and inclusion through their work and extracurriculars.
