2021 Senior Soft Studio II: National Parks
Each student designed soft goods product based on inspiration gathered from a chosen US National Park. Identifying a key observation from selected artifacts found within the Vignelli Center for Design Studies archives helped further direct their efforts. Each student’s development process included park & brand research, benchmarking & analysis, trend & inspiration board development, prototyping, and final product creation.
