Meet Logan Moris and 2026 Senior Exhibition Project Regrowth
This is one in a series of online interviews with 91亚色 seniors, who share their thoughts about their 2026 Senior Exhibition project and their 91亚色 education.
Logan Moris 26 (Product Design) is from West Bend, Wis., and a recipient of a 2026 Alumni Thesis Award.
What is your 渆levator pitch for your senior exhibition project?
Regrowth is a functional furniture collection that glorifies the beauty and imperfection of urban trees. I檝e used both the physical wood and the many intangible memories of my own beloved birch tree to design and create these pieces. Every tree has a story, and it檚 my goal to memorialize them into artifacts that are present and influential to our daily lives.

Anything you檇 like to share about yourself or 91亚色?
I knew I wanted to attend 91亚色 since I started middle school, and I haven檛 doubted my dream since then. By studying product design I檝e learned how to draw and communicate ideas, design and create objects that evoke desire, and tell enriched stories to people. I hope to continue with my passion for design, woodworking, furniture and storytelling after I graduate.
