Blurb (Box Preview):
What if your classroom turned into a design studio? In our most recent EdTread pop-up, students stepped into the role of Creative Director, using 3D simulation tech to remix Louis Vuitton sneakers in honor of Pharrell’s design leadership. This wasn’t just STEAM—it was storytelling, style, and self-expression in motion.
At YellowHab, creativity isn’t just a subject — it’s a system. In partnership with Odysee and the EdTread learning platform, students explored sneaker design through immersive digital tools, guided by professional mentors. Each participant reimagined luxury footwear from Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton collection using custom avatars, moodboards, and material mapping. This session challenged students to think beyond aesthetics — to create pieces that reflect identity, emotion, and voice. By merging simulation software with storytelling frameworks, we transformed learning into a real-world design experience. Perfect — here’s how you can structure each project post on your website under the “Projects” section, using the preview box + “Read More” format. This follows the style you’re using on your site, while giving you strong blurbs that capture attention and invite deeper exploration.
