A Design a Day
An everyday design challenge (Weeks 1-8)
As we became individually isolated with the events of 2020, I needed a project to make me more accountable for my thinking, and focus my awareness away from the chaos of the world.
I needed to find a way to appreciate the beauty in the mundane… but it had to be close to home.
…Yep it was the perfect time for another daily challenge.
For 17 weeks I created a new pattern or design everyday from the natural world around me. Some ideas came from that patterns in the clouds… others from plant material I collected or photographed on my daily walks.
The daily process of tapping into creativity, helped me to notice connections between concepts that, at first sight, seem unconnected. I became aware of the patterns of my unconscious thoughts.
