Collecting Sustainable Materials

....A week collecting cardboard, bottle caps, bubble wrap, cutting stencils, cutting newspaper making homemade glue, cutting plants, shaping plants, glue-gun burns.......a designers dream!

One of our themes for the exhibition is 'One Mans Trash is a Designers Treasure'. It is a twist to the commonly used saying 'One Mans Trash is another Mans Treasure'. We thought it would suit great with my group reusing sustainable materials throughout our designs.  


Each of us picked a word from this sentence and are going to create it using different forms of sustainable media e.g-  plants, Cardboard, Bottle caps etc. Each of the words will each be individually structured throughout its size (tall, 3D, 2D) and typeface style. In the end it will be a main piece of work at our exhibition space, this way it will allow the reader to walk around and interact.
