At the start of the Spring 2024 semester, the USC Roski School of Art and Design's Design department gained a new off campus building at IFT on Flower St.

I envisioned the cafe Ripple, a space within the IFT building covered in the color blue, filled with natural light and plant life, all factors that promote imagination and artistry. Even though it is off campus, I aim for Ripple to be a hub of creativity, where students gather, to bounce ideas off of one another and collaborate on new ideas.
