-The tutorial on Friday was very productive, I took the opportunity to design my essay plan, and a portion of primary research just to practice and have the research in itself be an experiment with this international style, combined with my own visual sensibility.Below is the pdf's of material shown along with notes, and action plan moving forward. The aim is to have at least the introduction and first chapter written by early this following week, allowing me to work on Chapter 2 on the weekend fingers crossed.Essay Plan - Pending Alterations In...

Last weeks context of practice tutorial with Simon Jones was really useful. It really helped crystallise what I wanted to say in the most effective and streamlined way possible taking into account the research I've undertook and the research and want to look further into. With themes of the Swiss International Style, Cultural Diffusion, Diffusion of Style, Todays technology and Globalisation/Emerging first world merging into one to create what I feel is a relevant debate.---The debate I want to look into is whether there's a growing need, or opportunity...

PressPausePlay is a 2011 documentary directed by David Dworksy & Victor Köhler.

I don't feel this is simply an approach to design that I would apply to every brief I ever get, as that is not the objective. I feel the practical work and conclusion of the dissertation is heading towards a progression of my level 05 CoP module which is reassuring...

At the Design Manchester 13' Conference, I went to gain research and advice from noted designers and speakers on other projects I'm working on but in the Q+A session at the end, the talk abruptly turned to Globalisation, Immigration and it's effects on design style. This conversation was between designers such as Peter Saville, Kate Moross and Mark Farrow. It was super reassuring to basically hear what I've been trying to argue and debate but said...
