    uniE621 Chronic Learning
    This work delves into the concept and stigmas surrounding chronic conditions, based on personal exprience. The idea is to theoretically sell key rings made from circuit boards to fund laptops for people affected that struggle to access mainstream education while also creating a development cycle that’s environmentally friendly. This is accompanied by a series of posters inspired by the idea that some chronic conditions aren’t identifiable from an outside perspective and only get seen when someone takes the time to look through a different ‘lens’. I did this by incorporating old 3d glasses into a variety of similar poster designs. when looked at through each colour, a different poster is seen. graphicdesigner branding designer
