Inspiration: 2D – 3D
One of my goals for the year is to use my background in architecture and do more three-dimensional work like exhibition design, curation and environmental graphics, moving beyond my comfort zone of print-based design. I’m looking forward to designing and curating an exhibition in the Hospital Club lobby going up in August until next year. The idea of taking something flat, such as a piece of paper, and giving it a three-dimensional form is something I’ll be looking into further…

The Hospital Club window
I designed the window graphics of The Hospital Club, here are some shots of it going up on Sunday in the rain.
The window is the first stage in promoting the Creatives in Residence to the rest of the Club. The visual identity consists of an octagonal building block representing the fact that there are eight of us who are all very different, yet have come together for the journey of the CIR. A sum of parts making a whole. Eight facets representing ourselves and the collaborations we will have with the other seven.
These octagons have been colour coded for each person, and make up a modular typeface, with a word chosen by each of us installed by hand in the windows.
Next up: taking over the lobby with an exhibition I’ll be curating, and Sabrina Mahfouz (Theatre & Poetry CiR) will be weaving the eight words into a poem. Watch this space…
