I am a designer with a masters in Industrial Design from the Rhode Island School of Design (2008). As an undergraduate, I studied art and environmental science and I view sustainable design as a perfect union of my creative instincts and passion for science and the natural world.
I am interested in the research and development of bio-inspired design solutions (for products and processes) as well as design as a more broad-based strategy for organizing society and industry toward more sustainable patterns.
I am currently based in Bozeman, MT and have been working at Montana State University, developing a campus sustainability initiative with the Associated Students of MSU.
I am interested in collaborating with others (of all disciplines), freelance, consulting, and employment opportunities.
My work and resume can be found online at www.gretchenhooker.com.

I am a woodworker, furniture restorer, fine furniture builder ( antique reproductions and my passion, my on designs based on natural forms ), woodcarver, woodturner, furniture designer and a nature lover.

One example of this is: you enjoy today one furniture and tomorrow you change the form of it with out cut or destroy it, just a natural mecano, natural transform, natural growing...
