360� - the June 2006 Raffles Design Institute Graduation Showcase - offers innovative insights into the diverse world of design; from Fashion to Jewellery, Interactive Media to Visual Communication, Interior Architecture to Product Design. "360�" symbolises design's constant revolutionary progression while signifying the unifying nature of design as a universal language.

360� is the biggest graduation showcase ever organised by Raffles Design Institute and it calls for a week long celebration in order for families, friends and industry partners to view all Raffles Designers' works. Below are the highlights of this week-long showcase:
