Day 4 - Polarization

Task: Design a postcard from London. Something that you really love or hate about the place.
Currently living in pretty much centre of town, at Waterloo behind the ambulance centre, I've grown to hate the constant noise. My postcard would feature a mix tape of London sounds, including motorbikes, sirens and rubbish collectors emptying bins, what a treat!


Back of the card

Task: Design a vinyl toy character to exaggerate a certain trait of your 
personality. 
Being a very visual person, I accentuated they eyes, which are slightly sticking
out.

Task: Picture with Black & White theme

Task: A government poster to discourage (or encourage) people from
having fried Mars bars.

Task: Make a hat for someone who's a Saint/Sinner, Happy/Sad/ Rich/Poor, Popular/Unpopular, Success/Failure.
I chose Success/Failure. The top side is (meant to look like...) a bowler hat, representing someone who's respected in the society and successful.

The inside hides a darker secret, a prisoner's hat. A symbol for a failed person who's despised by the society. It could also highlight the fact that the person might feel like a prisoner keeping up their perfect image and successful lifestyle.

Task: His & Hers towels for a transsexual couple
My towels were quite a gender neutral colours. With the symbols cut out, this shows their previous gender which belongs to their past but it's still present in their everyday life.
