DJCAD Design Thinking: Insights to Innovation

This was an intensive four weeks of working through a set design challenge in small groups using Design Thinking methodologies and principles.
Our brief was to "Make Dundee the first choice for tourists as the Covid-19 crisis eases"

Mock-up

We were encouraged to look into the future and imagine the impact our design would have. This mock-up newspaper was created using Photoshop.

Design article

For our final outcome, we were tasked with interviewing a member of Dundee's design community and producing a journalistic article on the subject of co-design. My interview was with Peter Nurick who is the communities producer at V&A Dundee. This was produced using InDesign.
