Final deliverables for the Recycling Boat event

Name : Float

Tagline: Get ur boat on

Venue: Langanside Belfast

Target Audience: 6th form students in Belfast

Brief: To raise awareness of the recycling issues the International Sustainability Event is to be hosted in Belfast in the summer of 2010. 

MY AIM:

The purpose of the event will be to establish recycling into our education system and make younger generations aware of the situation and for them to reflect the issue into their life at home, within the community and in the future jobs.

The event will be a recycling promotional boat race at the River Lagan know as the titanic quarters, its situated In Belfast beside the Odyssey Arena Ireland’s second-biggest indoor arena.  

The students will take their recycled boats to the water to race they will be made entirely out of recycled products. The event will be held annually were it combines environmental education with a dose of friendly competition to bring attention and awareness to reduce, reuse, and recycle.

To show participants and spectators alike how everyday items can find a second life in unconventional ways, students will race their boats and raced their sea-faring creations through a 50-yard course, competing against kids their own age.

The objective of the race is to build a people powered recycled floation device.  At least 70% of the materials used to build the watercraft must come from the waste stream(things that would normally be put into recycling or trash).  

The remaining 30% of the materials can be new (tape, nails, etc.)  The boats must be propelled by human or sail power, including oars or pedals.  The event is a way to have fun and learn about ways to help reduce waste and protect the environment.

Recyclable bags and leaflets

This bag was recycled from the poster of the event into a renewable and reusable item. Instead of the poster which was printed in PVC material going to waste, it was transformed into a fashionable bag.  It was printed on PVC material so that the weather would not destroy it and so it could be reused into something else.

Flatland

FLATLAND: A Romance of Many Dimensions is an 1884 satirical novella by the English schoolmaster Edwin Abbott. 

BRIEF:

Design a ‘collectable’ publication. Your only production parameter is the use of a single A0 sheet and some method of packaging/mailing. My Interpretation of the design for flatland is based on the individual shapes and the roles within Flantland. I have updated the colour them to 2009, to look more appealing to my target audience. 

POSTER: 

1184mm in height and 420mm in width printed onto material, It folds up into A5 size to fit into my packaging. The creative design for this piece was to show the hierarchy of each individual shape. Circle shape Has the most authority then hexagon, pentagon , square , triangle and finally the lower class of all the lines. 

A5 CARDS: 

6 cards in total, each card has a different shape on the back of the card. Each card describes the role of the shape in Flatland.

PACKAGING: 

The box is made from card, the purpose is to hold the 6 cards and the printed material poster within it. Design around the box is of all the different elements on the poster.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

I aim to enlightening the minds of young children in their primary school years. Primary 5/7 pupils, who have the knowledge of shape dimensions, and want to know more abut them. I want to inspire them to become more than what they think they can achieve and believe the unbelievable, just like the square in the book.

Poster

Final Outcomes

This is the signage in which i purposed for the LRC, i wanted to achieve an exciting and refreshing atmosphere in the LRC and in doing so I created theses images.

Breaking into final year with a mini project on signage for the LRC

Within this project we had to create signage for the LRC in our University's library. My final idea was a theme of jigsaw signage. Jigsaws requires the assembly of numerous small interlocking pieces, in the way the LRC combines journals, books, computers, careers, study and slide rooms together. I wanted also to create a lot of speculation and colour to my signage. I wanted the audience to engage and interact with certain objects. In my development work I wanted to create 3d jigsaw shapes into seating areas for the LRC.

In some areas I will have 3d jigsaw stands coming out of the walls, on these stands their is an option of displaying students work from all courses within the university. The jigsaw pieces will have arrows at the corners of each shape showing the direction in which the person

should walk to their destination.
