Cooper Hewitt Design Scholars's collections
Victoria Gao's Collection: The Design Process
<p>This is an online portfolio of the projects I worked on during the fall semester of Design Scholars. I worked in groups and individually on hands-on projects to learn more about architecture, landscape architecture, and interior design. I learned a lot about design in the real world from professional designers. Visiting Weiss/Manfredi and a design college also gave me a new perspective of the process of design.</p>

19th Century Fashion and the Architectual Sillohette
<p>The extravagance of French fashion in the 19th century creates a stepping stone for how famous designers like Rei Kawakubo and John Galliano use architecture as inspiration for their own collections. </p>

Structural Dimension by Aleah Leary
<p>The theme of my collection is Structural Dimension. During my time Here at Cooper Hewitt, I have spent my time designing different pieces that have had many points of view/ perspectives. We have played with different materials and dimensions (2-D and 3-D) that have been used to create solutions to different problems and prompts in a very unique way. In my collection I have included images of items that I have created and items that I feel add to my theme of structural design. </p>

Nature - Michelle Sung
<p>A small collection of nature and biology-related resources to let creators appreciate and draw inspiration from shapes and forms found in nature. Examples include studies of various animals and plants, furniture created using algorithms that mimic the natural growth of bone, and architecture that integrates nature whether in the shape of the building itself (World Trade Center Transportation Hub) or by utilizing wood and sunlight to create a specific atmosphere. The forms of nature can be used towards practical applications within design or simply inspire novel and creative approaches to everyday objects.</p>

Jonathan's Collection
<p>Over the course of the Scholar Program, the underlying theme that has resonated with me is design's interaction with people. I like to think of design as problem solving -- and for the majority of my time with the scholar program, I have learned to focus on developing projects to fit a group of people or other subjects.</p>
