The Immersion Room on the second floor uses digital and projection technologies to bring the museum\u2019s collection of wallcoverings, the largest and most notable in North America to life. Visitors who come to the Cooper Hewitt Museum receive an interactive pen, an all-access pass to the world of design. Visitors use the pen to copy any object in the museum and save it to their collection or experiment with creating their own designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/images\/velocity\/emer.jpg\" alt=\"http:\/\/www.cooperhewitt.org\/events\/opening-exhibitions\/immersion-room\/\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>CHM Press release- &#8220;This interactive space, formerly Margaret Carnegie\u2019s bedroom, offers a unique experience: the ability to view Cooper Hewitt\u2019s extraordinary collection of wallcoverings as never before.<br>You can select wallpapers from the Museum\u2019s permanent collection and see them projected on the walls from floor to ceiling\u2014for a vibrant, impactful, immersive sensory room experience. You can even play designer by creating your designs, or just stand back and watch as the wallpapers unfold across the immersive room.<br>More than just entertainment, the Immersion Room provides the first opportunity to discover Cooper Hewitt\u2019s wallcoverings as they were intended to be viewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/CHM_wallpaper.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"842\" src=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/CHM_wallpaper.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/CHM_wallpaper.jpg 560w, https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/CHM_wallpaper-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>A damask-style sidewall design called<a href=\"https:\/\/collection.cooperhewitt.org\/objects\/18711609\/\">&nbsp;\u201cCity Park\u201d&nbsp;<\/a>(2007) that contains strikingly modern imagery, including <br>a fire hydrant, parking meter, pigeons and rats<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To complement the experience, several wallpapers are accompanied by audio clips. When you select one of these designs, an audio recording plays through speakers in the room, giving you additional information about that particular design or designer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience is yet another way the new Cooper Hewitt is remaining true to the vision of its founders, Sarah and Eleanor Hewitt, who intended it as \u201ca practical working laboratory,\u201d where students and designers could be inspired by actual objects. Their 1897 vision of a museum and collection \u201cfor anyone who wanted to use it as a place to work and learn\u201d seems radical, even by today\u2019s standards, but it has guided the transformation of Cooper Hewitt into a design museum for the 21st century.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out some of my favorite wallpapers and where to buy them on my <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/ntranter\/homelove\/\">pinterest<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my graphic design blog archives&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/blog\/category\/graphic-design\/\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my graphic design portfolio&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nancytranter.com\/#portfolio\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:11px\">Source: Cooper Hewett Museam, The Immersion Room is made possible by major support from Amita and Purnendu Chatterjee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Immersion Room using digital and projection technologies This exhibition makes you feel like a genius.
