Encompassing some of the most innovative design objects from the museum's collection and beyond, this exhibition showcases the exceptional creativity of faculty, students, and alumni on the occasion of the college's 100th anniversary. Recent and contemporary works—ranging from lighting to posters, furniture, and architectural models—demonstrate CCA's commitment to fostering cutting-edge design through a distinctive combination of concept and craft.
The show includes designs by Yves Béhar, Thom Faulders, IwamotoScott, Kuth/Ranieri, Jennifer Morla, and Bruce Tomb, among others. Even the exhibition's display system—a special commission by CCA instructor and architect Douglas Burnham and his Oakland firm, envelopeA+D—conveys the school's creative vision. An adjacent presentation, featuring award-winning print materials and buildings designed for CCA, complements the installation.
