Cochineal, sumac and quebracho dye bath for the Ollie hemp pants and some cotton socks. My hands were stained red for a week, but it was so worth it in the end!! I love the way hemp fibers absorb color. #naturaldyes #cochineal #appareldesign

This week I had an amazing experience at the Portland Functional Fabric Fair! I am grateful for this wonderful opportunity to be an exhibitor and display my senior capstone project: Derived. Special thank you to Chase Anderson, Mark Larese-Casanova, Dave Gibson for helping me prepare for this event! It was also so fun to spend the week with Outdoor Recreation Archive and Beams !!! Cheers !!!

Experimenting with Generative Design 🕶️ More to come soon. #id #generativedesign #productdesign #industrialdesign #design #render #keyshot #fusion360 #renderweekly #generative

Come to Senior Exhibit and see how students like Anna Holland create new products that solve problems. Anna partnered with local artist, Kaya Eccles, to create better apparel for wheel chair users. Anna even incorporated some of Kaya’s art into the final design. See this and other projects at our upcoming Senior Exhibit on April 25th from 1-4pm in the TSC Sunburst Lounge!

Graduating senior, Madeline Gonzales is exhibiting her nine-piece collection that she designed and created with all natural materials and dyes. Check out her work at FUNCTIONAL FABRIC FAIR (powered by PERFORMANCE DAYS) today!

Another round of sketch model render, this time with a MP3 player. I haven’t seen one in a while but I sure love them. Got to learn more about Keyshot nodes and materials. Send me any tips or critique! #ideation #sketch #render #id #renderweekly #productdesign #productdesigner #ipod

Get involved in Earth Week!

I’m stoked to be starting a new position as a pattern developer at My Girlfriend's Quilt Shoppe!

Our students are cooking up some amazing things in the labs right now. 🧪
