Boyce sparks creativity in interior design Choosing fabrics for drapes and coordinating colors in rugs may not seem like an exciting job, but it is one of the many tasks tackled by an interior designer. Speech teacher, Mrs. Claire Boyce, began interior design work as a hobby in college by designing sets as a the- atre major. Applying her stage de- sign knowledge to decorating homes led her to her first job: re- doing a friend's apartment. Feel- ing successful after many exper- iences in redecorating she decided to attend the Academy of the Mer- chandise Mart for five years and study the basics of interior design. In creating a design, the floor plan is the designer's basic tool. A designer should have a natural creativity and a sound knowledge of interior design, stated Mrs. Boyce. It is important to go to a good school and learn how to ap- ply these basic talentsf' Knowing how the color wheel works in blending texture and fabric is also an integral part in the work of an interior designer. With the help of her husband, Mrs. Boyce has been operating Left: Besides helping customers choose materials and lay floor plans, Mrs. Boyce also designs many accessories as well. .iw 1 Q.. , her own business for the last three years called Niveri. Keeping busy mainly during the summer months, she works out of her own home. By appointments for consultations she brings many samples of fabrics and wall cover- ings in all colors and styles to the project. Mrs. Boyce works with many different retailers to get a wide range of materials and prices for her clients. With today's economy it's hard to afford everything you like. We try to get the most and best quality at rea- sonable prices. Although most designers try to organize their work, the head- aches always find a way to creep in: Some of the problems I en- counter are furniture getting lost, half of the order coming in late, and the company being out of the supplies the designer wants. Interior design is a competitive field, but Mrs. Claire Boyce feels it is a rewarding experience for any- one who chooses it as a career. Someone with the desire to achieve will make it in the design world. It's fun and exciting and you never do the same job twice. MR. R. GRANDMAISON Business MR. G.

Teacher nurtures skills at towering altitudes 6 M7 1 H.. i . 'N Have you ever had the chance to fly like an eagle? The closest most of us have come is flying in an airplane. Some fortunate few get the chance to take control and become pilots. Mr. Ken Mus- zynski is one of the few. Although a pilot's license can be obtained at the age of sixteen, Mr. Muszynski did not start flight training until in college. Since then he has be- come an experienced pilot. Mr. Muszynski makes flying available to students here at Thornwood High School. He en- courages a minimum of three stu- dents to go up at a time to split the price, which runs between thirty- five and forty dollars. During this time, each student gets the feel of flying by actually taking con- Left: Mr. Ken Muszynski poses for a pho- tograph in front of his favorite pastime.

It's really an exciting hobby for students, but it can get expensive, explained Mr. Muszynski. A number of people have pur- sued their interests further after being so inspired. The aeronautics field has a wide range of career and recreational opportunities. Mr. Muszynski flies Whenever he has a chance to go to the Lan- sing Airport and rent a plane. It is often more convenient for him to be able to fly instead of driving somewhere. On weekends he and his friends take trips to places like the Playboy Club at Lake Geneva. Sometimes they have to fly home at night. Mr. Muszynski replied with an enthusiastic grin, I like night flying the best - with all the lights and everything, it's really beautiful! FACULTY 195
