Have you ever wondered what it takes to build something great from scratch? Fresh off a design trip to Peru’s Sacred Valley, Design Seedlings is taking over Moonlight Bay with “Can You Rebuild It? Design Seedling Challenge”. Stop by to test your memory and sharp eyes in a game. Just scan a woven pattern, memorize it in 5 seconds, and try to rebuild it step by step on your phone. Afterward, you can see the real-world stories behind the artwork. Before you leave, head over to the interactive stamping station to make your own custom print to take home. Whether you study engineering, art, business, just love a good puzzle, or want to make a custom print, challenge your brain and see if you have what it takes! No Registration Required. Stop by between 8am-10pm to experience the challenge. About the Resident: Design Seedling is a design lab that connects smart university students with the business world.
