Artist's statement:
“My work is all about the championing of reflection and thought in design in the hope of creating a practice that is not merely decorative, but something far more intrinsic and powerful. This folder represents the total sum of my final year at university. It was a meandering and at times frustrating look at how a designer balances the entertainment value of their work in our age of visually over-stimulated spectacles. My work-process is often very obsessive, resulting in pages that take far longer to create than they ought to. I guess the reason for this is that I believe that every decision matters - all those niggling little details - because in the end , that’s what good design requires.”
