College Lamp
I am in college and moving into the Resident Halls in the Fall and was wanting some advice on what to bring?
I need advice on what to bring (fridge, teddy bears, lamp....) or if you have an links that have a list of what to bring?? Also I am going to be an Resident Assisitiant and will take any good advice and tips, As well as ideas on activities and games, for just my Hall or the whole campus. Thanks!! You advice is truly helpful!!!
The most important thing to do is check with your school's housing department (probably available online) to see what is allowed and what isn't. Most schools allow a small refrigerator (make sure you have the right size), but many do not allow a microwave--or will only let you have a combo fridge/microwave that they sell or rent to you. Also, some schools warn against Halogen lamps (they can be a fire hazard). Basically, though, take whatever you would have in your normal room and study area--but make sure you don't take so much that your room will be cluttered. Instead of dragging your entire CD collection, load your favorite tunes onto a USB drive or directly onto your computer (assuming you have on). A few posters will help liven up the room as well. A shower caddy, bath robe, and flip-flops will be essential for dorm living as well.
That Bed Bath and Beyond list is good, but remember that they're trying to get you to buy their stuff--a lot of what is listed is excessive and unnecessary.
As for the RA thing. . . food is always a great icebreaker, especially for poor, away-from-home freshman. Assuming you have some sort of budget, consider an ice cream social (ice cream, lots of toppings) or a pizza night. Also, perhaps a crafts event where everyone makes something for their dorm room, such as a Welcome sign for their door. A movie night, either in your room (if it's big enough and not a lot of people are coming) or in the dorm's lounge, if there is one--would be fun, too. Get a movie that maybe people haven't seen (like a cheesy 80's movie--Back to School is great--or, if it's close to Halloween, a scary movie from the 70's, like the original Halloween). You might also rent a bunch of TV shows and have a marathon--like a "Buffy" or "Gilmore Girls" marathon.
Get microwave popcorn in lots of flavors (cheese, movie-style butter, kettle corn, etc.) and have fun.
We also used to have a Christmas decorating contest every year--the floors would go all out with lights and snowmen and such.
Also, it's a good idea to have a bulletin board for posting any important information for your students. You can jazz it up with a "theme," such as a tropical theme, where you have construction paper fish and a blue background--a little cheesy, but it livens things up, and you can continue the theme by writing each student's name on a fish (or something related to the theme you choose) and putting the fish on their door to welcome them when they show up. (This will impress freshmen more than anything else--upperclassmen don't need to be welcomed--you don't say who will be on your floor. In fact, a lot of this is geared towards freshmen. Upperclassmen already have their social lives and routines pretty much set, and might not be as interested in floor activities.) You can also fill the board with inspiring, motivational quotes. Good luck!

Furniture Designers Like Verner Panton Makes Perfect Lamp Design.
One of the most influential Danish furniture designers of the 20th century was Verner Verner Panton. The most well known item that came from his brilliant mind was the single unit cantilevered chair made from steel and molded plastic. This chair is one of the most famous designs of the century and quickly became as much a symbol of the 1960s as the peace sign and bell bottom pants. Born in 1926 on the Danish Island of Funen, Verner Verner Panton would go on to be known for his extravagant form and use of bright, intense colors that is firmly seated in the functionalism of the 1950s.
Verner Verner Panton was a man who took a systematic approach to everything in his life but most especially his designs. He trained as an architectural engineer at Odense Technical College and went on to the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He worked for Arne Jacobsen from 1950 to 1952 and helped in the development of the 'Ant' chair. He went on to start his own firm and worked as an independent architect and designer from the mid-1950s until his death in 1998.
This was not a man who focused on a single object but instead saw whole groups of furniture and how they would fit in the confines of a room. His work was extensive and diverse and many of it can be found in the comprehensive retrospective that is in the Vitra Design Museum. He gained international recognition with his geometric based furniture that was manufactured by Plus-linje, namely the 'Cone Chair'. Because they were made of plastic, they were easy to reproduce on the industry line.
To say that Verner Verner Panton's approach was non-traditional is probably an understatement. He preferred his furniture - whether in plastic of plywood like the 'S' chair - to have fluidity in its lines and each had distinct landscape-like qualities. All of the pieces were produced with the most advanced techniques of the day and he consistently built upon and improved each subsequent design. Plus, Verner Verner Panton is the father of inflatable furniture, his first prototype being an inflatable pneumatic stool. It would be years before inflatable furniture became mass marketed but all of it was based on his inspirational design.
Connoisseurs of Verner Verner Panton's work can point out the change in Verner Verner Panton's work during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Verner Verner Panton began to work with interiors, using rich colors and fabrics of all types to create a room that was nothing short of fantastic. Many of his creations were very forward thinking and otherworldly and he challenged the people living with his ideas to be creative with the furniture and interior designs he gave them. The Loreley cruise ship that sailed on the Rhine and was commissioned by Bayer AG and the Grand Europa had an interior designed by Verner Verner Panton.
This experimentation in Verner Panton's work has been considered a defining factor in his unique style. He designed seating furniture and lamps for manufacturers such as Fritz Hansen, Louis Poulsen, Thonet, Herman Miller/Vitra, Royal Copenhagen, and Rosenthal. The 'Flowerpot' lamp and the Verner Panton chair are still in production today with other pieces from Verner Panton's mind. He also became known for his collaboration with Mira-X for his intense colored and geometric patterned textiles. He won numerous international design awards and continued working up until his death.
