Graphic Communication and Illustration
Design for me has often been about provoking a message or a moment of reflection on social or environmental issues, whether thats through UX/UI design, experiential, illustration etc.
Final year project
EpiSpot
Set of posters launching the new service 'EpiSpot'
This project revolved around allergy awareness and with this the launch of 'EpiSpot' boxes which contain EpiPens for use in serious allergic reaction situations. Like many of my projects, this is a topic personal to me, as some of my close friends and family suffer from such allergies. These posters are situated in restaurants and cafes and their function is to direct customers to read the website and learn what EpiSpot is. I chose to use collage, as I wanted it to be quite impactful and thought-provoking.
EpiSpot Website- Emergency steps
During a serious allergic reaction, getting help quickly is key, this is why I made the website easily accessible with the steps taken when using an EpiPen device explained clearly and simply.
Poster explaining EpiSpot boxes
EpiSpot boxes are situated across the country and they contain an EpiPen device. This poster explains to the general public how the boxes will be introduced and what their purpose is.
BBC Lift Off educational app
BBC Lift Off is a space-themed educational app designed to help children with learning difficulties and ensure no child is left behind when it comes to education. This project was done in collaboration with Annabelle Cole with whom I thoroughly enjoyed working. We both utilised our key skills within this project, as whilst I focused on the UX/UI design of the app, Annabelle focused on the illustration and animation. I feel communication and team working skills were key to this project, in order to build a project we were both proud of, which I feel we achieved.
BBC Lift Off interface for younger children
BBC Lift Off is an inclusive learning app for 3-11-year-olds and was designed in response to the D&AD New Blood Awards BBC brief. The app has many features such as AR mode which brings learning outside the classroom, parent page which allows parents/ guardians to check their child's progress and interactive tools allowing difficult topics to be displayed visually and help with homework. The interface also adapts and grows with the child's age and knowledge.
BBC Lift Off Learning style quiz
This image depicts the learning style quiz which is undertaken by the child at the start with the aid of a parent/guardian to determine their learning style and declare if they have any learning difficulties. By determining this, Lift Off can turn on certain toggles to aid learning. For example, for kinaesthetic learners, the toggle will suggest the interactive tools and if a child is dyslexic, then overlays and the reading ruler will be in place.
