The Spark
Bridget Cary's capstone: a modular set-design studio and performance space where music, fashion, art, dance and theatre each reconfigure the room itself — architecture as the ensemble's sixth member.
In Process
Moodboard and precedent research (Leila Menchari's Hermès windows, Powerhouse Arts, Artists Space) grounded the language, with a site study of a repurposed Brooklyn warehouse at 563 Johnson Ave giving the concept a real floor plan to answer to.
The Craft
The AI involvement here is deliberately light — an AI-assisted brief set the direction and the design craft carried everything after. Gleam sits in this portfolio as the counter-example: right-sizing AI's role inside a design engagement rather than maximizing it.
Outcome
A complete capstone: a brand identity, a visitor journey, and a spatial system where the room itself performs — recomposing for each artist who takes it over.
Process — 23 frames
