What If...


The Brief
What if a group of graphic design students get together, and decide to solve a problem?

Based on a common interest, research and knowledge, you must establish a "problem" that effects some sector of the general public in Leeds.

You must develop logical, original and adventerous research lines of enquiry in order to justify the relevance of the "problem"- which should inform a range of solutions.

The solution(s) must be resolved, designed and presented in the public domain and recorded appropriately.


Deliverables
Compelling fact based evidence should be presented to prove that the problem you are adressing is a genuine problem.

A photographic record of the solution to the problem as presented in the public domain.

Appropriate supporting work, worksheet, notebooks etc...


Considerations
This is a collaborative process so you must ensure as part of this you discuss, agree and share all responsibilties.

The research process should be gradual and provide the foundation for ideas and challenges, which eventually will inform the solution. It isn't possible to conclude the brief and then fill in the research gaps aftewards.


This is, effectively, a live brief so please be considerate, respectful, and legal in your activites.


Studio Deadline
