Now, This is Shit


2024


A UWE (University of the West of England) project; create a B5, spiral bound document with 30 different ideas and analysis of design studios/artists/practices. 


I aimed to create something that looked bad but was carefully considered. The style was influenced by mood boards focused on scanography, collage and scenography. I created a narrative between a rebellious designer and an oppressive university, told through pink slips placed across spreads. Rubbish was scanned and layered with text, using taped notes, stains and textured backgrounds. The outcome was one A5 publication, designed in Photoshop, combining physical mess with structured layout. This project taught me about visual storytelling, texture and pushing the line between design and parody.
