This week we're looking into methodologies for thinking and design processes - one thing I've realised this week after talking to Ben, is that we are all so different in our processes and, for sure, I've come to really recognise the stages of mine - from lightbulb, through panic, through calm desperation and right back… Continue reading Week 8 – Research

This week I'm really hoping this whole process helps me find my way with this project - I've got an audience and an issue that needs solving but currently I'm going round and round a few ideas that aren't sparking anything for me... When I think of trends, it's always something technological that I think… Continue reading Week 7 – Research
Week 6 – Workshop Challenge & Reflection
This week has seen a big change in direction for the project : The first half of this post is the new project and the final slide presentation.

They ask for… Continue reading Week 5 – Workshop Challenge & Reflection

Industry Set This week marks the start of a new brief - 8 weeks long! I'm actually really excited to have such a long time to spend on a new project. The interviews this week were quite eye opening in regards to how established designers still look for and complete competitive briefs or open briefs… Continue reading Week 5 – Research

I wonder how it could progress as a campaign - perhaps more type and information would be useful but I totally get why you've not done that. Jen, 21 : I really like… Continue reading Week 4 – Workshop Challenge & Reflection
Week 3 – Workshop Challenge & Reflection
This week I've been enjoying playing around with learning coding and understanding how algorithms work. I've probably bitten off more than I can chew in terms of learning and understanding this whole new world of computing but with my Fiance studying Computing&IT it's been a really valuable learning curve. This week we've been encouraged to… Continue reading Week 3 – Workshop Challenge & Reflection

I think this week is not just looking at WHY we do Self Initiated projects, but what they bring to our own identities, our lives and our bank accounts!!! Interestingly, the professionals interviewed all mentioned money at one stage or another - because at the crux of all this, we are designers because we want… Continue reading Week 4 – Research
