Designer Vs. Nature

Project Brief

Objective:
Assess the connection between myself as a designer and how design has an effect on nature. Then, after choosing a connection that is relative, design a visual communications piece that effectively communicates the connection message.  

Client:
Larry Clarkson, Vis Com classmates, and Myself as an expressive individual


Audience:
Vis Com classmates and patrons of the DOVA department. Eventually Starbucks committee for environmental responsibility.


Message:
Starbucks coffee is currently served in a 10% post consumer fiber cup. I believe Starbucks can make a more environmentally friendly post consumer fiber cup than the one current sold.


Specifications:
Create the entire communication piece using design garbage, or recycled goods once used to disseminate a message. The piece should be at least 12" by 18" in size.
