Paper

A third-year module about designing with, and around, paper.

In a mini-project, using newspaper we created a face mask as this was the first time we had come back to university after the first lockdown in Scotland.

Call for company card about Peter Callesen's negative papercuts, listing what Rachel could contribute to a team

We were to form groups based on designs of paper that inspired us. This was our call for company! We then expanded on our interests by creating an imaginary article for Domos Magazine.

Based on the interests of everyone in the company, we designed a sculpture of a dress, reading allowed a message of fast fashion on the walls around it.
