Capsule 8 is a pop-up clothing retail space created by Marisa, Ryan, Changlin, and Nicholas. At the start of the Fall 2016 semester we were given the task of creating a pop-up store for the category clothing. The team started with secondary research, defining areas of interest; athleisure, recycled, custom/tailored, and capsule. From these four areas of interests, we set out to do street intercepts. We found pain points and areas of opportunities of clothes shopping. After several group discussions around our research, both primary and secondary, we decided on a capsule collection. Capsule is a wardrobe collection of a few essential items of clothing that don’t go out of fashion, such as coats, collared shirts, plain t-shirts, and jeans. This defined product category was perfectly suited to solve our people problem statement of “I am overwhelmed by my closet and shopping. I have a lot of clothes, but nothing to wear, or that fits”. With our defined retail space set on a capsule collection we began to …
The anticipation and excitement of expecting a child have increasingly been diminished by the stress of finding accessible, quality childcare. With no uniform situation or system, navigating childcare has become overwhelming and stressful for parents & guardians. Options vary from family, friends, nannies, in-home daycare & centers.

Global climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of extreme weather. “A recent study says we can expect the oceans to rise between 2.5 and 6.5 feet (0.8 and 2 mt) by 2100, enough to swamp many of the cities along the U.S. East Coast. More dire estimates, including a complete meltdown of the Greenland ice sheet, push sea level rise to 23 feet (7 mt), enough to submerge London.” Flooding Rebranded will attempt to mitigate the impact of flooding on coastal regions within the United States. The objective being to foster a sustainable model for prevention & recovery. Our solution: REVERB, the integration of ‘eco-barriers’ into human settlements via a supporting framework.

Misuse of data is a serious problem. But perhaps equally as troubling is the fact that many users are not sufficiently aware of how exactly popular apps and platforms work, how their engagement is optimized, or what’s being tracked and collected. In our project, we identified: growing amounts of data being collected and sold, negligent click-throughs of terms and conditions, ”smart” tech, facial recognition technologies, and awareness by organizations as evident and emerging trends. We also created a CLA and a poster for a possible future of Bio design.
