If you were a book what would your subject be and who would read you?
If I was a book it would be a book mainly full of Illustrations of adventure stories, mainly for children. However the type of childrens book would be the sort that as you get older it is remembered clearly that you have been brought up around. There was a book called 'Dudley in a Jam' by Peter Cross and Illustrations by Judy Taylor which was my Mums favourite childrens book as I was growing up and now im a bit older it is now one of my fvourite books. Therefore the type of book would be one that has sentimetal value and purpose to its viewers, and is meant for children but has a soft spot with adults of all ages. Another book which also has this same reasoning would be 'The Jolly Pocket Postman' which is book with openings and envelopes that is fun and quirky.
Whilst researching different books I came across this book by Rob Ryan who is a London based paper artist. 'Telling a charming tale about family, love and adventure, the children’s book assembles a series of Ryan’s beautiful paper artworks, which consists not only of cut-out images, but of finely crafted text as well.'
This book is minimalistic, audience is children, it has a great mixture of illustration and typography to tell its story. This creative design would be the sort of book you would remember for the rest of your life as you got older. I would hope that if i was a book I would be one that people would remember.
If you were a package what would you contain and who would open you?
I would want tto be a package that has more then one use. That can be re used time and time again. I would want to be a package that wasnt seen as junk and was binned or recycled straight away. Whatever i would contain it would have to be just as useful and important as the actual product. for example. 'To reintroduce and encourage analog film photography, Xu created the pinhole cameras as film packaging. The package include instructions and materials for assembly of the fully functional pinhole camera. '
If you were a shop what would you sell and who would buy it?
If i was a shop i would be a supermarket. Supermarkets are the most useful and essential places that everyone needs to be in. you can get so much use out of a supermarket, purely because majority of the time you can get everything you need from one.
If you were a poster what would you promote and to whom?
If i was a poster i would want to spread inspiration and happiness to its viewers, rather then sell or promote an object. I would want to change the way someone feels even if it is just for a split second. I would like to be something that is kept and hung up and enjoyed every day and even shown to others.
I came across this design when I was researching packaging and these inspirational quotes and images really enticed me. They are quirky and unique and I find that the crumple look of them makes them feel more personal because there not perfect and there not trying to be.
'Switzerland-based designer Claudia Eggimann has created a set of crumpled posters, which she describes as “the-out-of-bed-poster to go”.
These hand-painted posters bring together some great illustration, typography and packaging work—being artfully crumpled, they can be easily transported without worries of getting them creased.'

If you were a brand what would your values be and why would they be important?
Jack Wills- 'Contine to be influenced by the best of british, from our history and culture. Take pride in using the finest quality materials, techniques and design to deliver our distinctive connecton between the old and new. Optomising what is to be yuong and faboulously british. Our values reflect the way we act and what we stand for as a brand. British inspired by its history and tradition, blending old and new to create something thats distinctivly ours. Creativity and the desire to be leading edge drives us.' As a designer myself this would be the perfect brand to follow purely because I am proud of where i come from but also using that as inspiration to create designs that are influence by history aswell.
If you were an exhibition what would you show and where would you show it?
I like the idea of re using things, that nothing should be wasted or not have a purpose, therefore I would be a pop up art exhibition, showing various arts, ranging from not only self confessed artists and designers but also people who do it as a hobby. I believe that everyone should have an experience with some art and design froms therefore to have it popping up in all different places is a beneficial idea to everyone.
'Columbus, Ohio is home to ‘Rooms To Let Temporary Art Space’, an art community project that lets artists get creative with abandoned or donated houses in the inner-city area.
Using these often overlooked spaces as sites and inspiration for their artworks, the results of the project are usually unexpected and wonderful to behold.
For instance, a student collaborative project with the Columbus College of Art & Design transformed the interior of a house into a beautiful light installation.
The brainchild of artist Melissa Vogley Woods, Room To Let is preparing for an upcoming text-driven exhibition—‘Words To Let’—that will involve 10 local and international writers and artists.'

If you were a leaflet what information would you contain and who would read it?
If I were a leaflet i would want to be an informative leaflet, one in which would enlighten its viewers in something they didnt know already, or maybe even making them aware of a certain situation or problem. The leaflet would have to have a purpose, one in which would be kept and cherished and valued. Rather then been seen as junk. I would want everyone to be able to read the leaflet and not have it being restricted. It would be understood by children with vivid imagery and enough text to inform an older age of people.
If you were a sign what would you show, to whom and where ?
If I were a sign I would be a wayfinding sign. They are the most useful signage systems. useful to all audiences because of there simplicity. They are used daily and frequently. The signage would be mainly for adults, but still be apealing to many audiences.
If you were an App what would you do and who would use you?
Instagram. I think instagram is the best way to savour precious moments, and share them with friends and family instantly, but also to people who you dont know. In that way you can spread a message and show awareness to many people around the world instantly. I would want to be an app that did this, that would maybe make someones day by looking at a photo. Anyone with a smart phone would be able to use this.
If you were a blog, what would you be about and who would follow you?
If i was to be a blog it would be like DesignTaxi blog. There tagline is driving you to bright ideas. I have found so many incredible designs on this blog, it gets updated regulary with anything thats creative. It always inspires me in some way and open my eyes up to other types of design specialisms. I would want to inspire people in all kinds of fields of design and too be able to show this to many audiences young or old.
If you were an event, what would it be and how would you promote it?
If i was to be an event i would be a festival. It would have live music from a whole range of artists varying to all different types of music genres. It would have a great big range of food stalls that people could enjoy food from different counrtys and cultures. It would be a festival about experiencing new things aswell. As i love to experience new things and always try something at least once this would be the perfect place for people to enjoy. I would promote it all over social networking sites, adverts on tv, on billboards, posters, leaflets and word of mouth.
The above images are from light festivals. I think these are spectacular images, although iv never been to one before i deffinatley would like to enjoy one of these and be inspired.
