Culture Creation
<p>Detailed showcase of Corporate America's constant creation, alteration, and recasting of cultural elements through advertisement, product details, and placement of their products in human elements such as film. Intended to question the negative connotation with both advertisement and corporate use of culture/humanity through example. Each element of this collection covers a different company approach to connecting their product to human ideals and/or directly incorporating their brand into the cultural sphere.

Design in Accessories
<p>Discover the numerous resources that explore human nature to improve our physical appearances. We often think of cosmetics and clothing as some of the most popular items people use to improve their physical appearances. However, technology pushes the limits of physical altercations to include prosthetics and other tools that let allow us to add to our bodies in ways that diverge from a simple touch-up or T-shirt. </p>

Designing For Accessibility–Tova Kleiner
<p>This Learning Lab showcases different examples of accessible design in order to provide a fuller understanding of what designing for accessibility can look like. The collection shown here includes designs that address physical, cognitive, and emotional barriers that impact the lives of people with disabilities. This Learning Lab explores design for the blind, for wheelchair accessibility, for the elderly, and for people with autism. Through the DesignPrep Scholars program, I have learned about various design disciplines and focuses. DesignPrep Scholars gave me the opportunity to meet several inspirational designers and do many design projects. Throughout this experience, I have been especially drawn to design that is inclusive and accessible. This Learning Lab is the culmination of my work at DesignPrep Scholars and displays what I have learned about accessible design.</p><p><em>#designthinking</em></p><p><br /></p>

Emotions: Expression
<p>Ability to comprehend and express emotions via color -- journeys from the initial discovery and acceptance of multiple emotions to a various selection of emotions itself. People make conscious choices in the creation of art; colors can correlate to emotions and designers make these choices purposely. </p><p><em>#designthinking</em></p><p><br /></p>

Fashion as a Form of Protest in 20th Century America: Lara Caligor
<p>The 1960's and the 1970's were a tumultuous time in American History. Events such as the Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam war and Second Wave Feminism majorly affected American culture. Social movements working for equality consisted mainly of young people who attempted to push boundaries not only of social constructs but of fashion. This collection explores the development of fashion in the 1960's in conjunction with rapid change in American society. </p>

Fonts and Feelings - Ai Hashimoto
<p>There's a lot you can get out of font design, one of those is feelings. As a reflection on the various design concepts I have explored at Cooper Hewitt with the Design Scholars, I created a Learning Lab on how the fonts in our everyday lives are connected to the feelings that we portray in our writing. I have pulled resources from designers I have met throughout the DesignPrep Program, including designs from Cooper Hewitt, the Smithsonian, and myself. Below you will see a collection of 10 images (each with a description on the connection to feelings) including a video "Wicked Problems in Type Design" that you can explore.</p>
<p> ***The descriptions written by me may not depict what the actual designer intended their audience to feel, but they are my interpretation (except for my 2 pieces), so please feel free to build off of or have your own interpretation </p><p><em>#designthinking</em></p>
