Entry Description

This interdisciplinary senior design proposal was created in response to a NASA inspired RFP. Each student design team (comprised of industrial design, interior design, & graphic design), was challenged to create experiential design proposals including a space-themed hotel (fictionally located adjacent to Kennedy Space Center Visitor’s Center in Florida, USA) and a mobile learning unit to further a lesser known aspect of NASA's mission with the public: NASA's stewardship of Earth. Teams further rounded out their proposals with additional components to best communicate their design intent.
