Week 7

Final outcome

Positioning statement

Graphic designers are struggling with their mental health/wellbeing due to factors such as long working hours, instability with income, constant scrutiny from clients and constantly evolving technology. Additionally, high screen time is a distraction and can restrict creativity. Through my research for current trends, craft is still relevant even with the advancement of technology due to its innovative and experimental approach. Designers need an opportunity to fall back in love with the craft of design, and my workshop concept will encourage play through problem solving, interactive and collaborative activities. The outcomes of this workshop will be to eliminate every day pressures experienced in designers lives; that it’s acceptable to experiment and make mistakes.
