Dissertation from my final year at Ravensbourne. @rv_grphcdsgn We were given the option to produce either a written or practice-based dissertation which showed our ability to research and express our thoughts and findings on our chosen subject. I chose to produce a visual dissertation in the form of a book, with an accompanying narrative of approximately 4,000 words. I wanted to explore and discover how much technology has changed graphic design and its designers, whilst also questioning our current educational interpretation of graphic design in relation to the multi-disciplinary knowledge required of today’s design student. I was influenced by my own practice and how, as a designer, I need to adapt and broaden my skillset through learning about new technologies whilst retaining a bedrock of traditional design values. The outcome of my dissertation is a book consisting of three chapters, which each have their own visual language. There is a digital copy of my book available on my website. Feel free to check it out!

Brave New Fashion is a website-based magazine highlighting what is happening in today’s fashion industry and how its future may be influenced by new technology and the increasing desire for sustainability. It contains 6 articles that I have written based on the research I found. Check out the site at bravenewfashion.com

Busy trying to get quotes for printing my dissertation. Hopefully will have done soon.

Experimenting in Procreate

I have never been someone who sketches. I have always avoided it. With my current project being about fashion I thought it would be a good time to try and challenge myself to sketch something every day. I really like fashion sketches so here is my first attempt 👍🏼

A spread from my dissertation. I love this quote from #paulascher. Hoping to get my dissertation printed very soon.
