The Corgan RISE Scholarship supports emerging architecture and interior design students who demonstrate thoughtful design work and a commitment to the built environment. My application featured Pure+Freeform Showroom, a speculative showroom project exploring innovative materials, sustainable strategies, and contemporary fabrication through a precise yet expressive spatial approach.

While I was not selected as a recipient, the application process was a meaningful learning experience. Developing the submission pushed me to clarify my design intent, refine my visual narrative, and better articulate the ideas behind the project. I appreciated the opportunity to participate in a program that values critical thinking and design exploration.
