Project Title: A Typographical Metaphor
Project Description:
In our first Senior Studio design project, Steve Kim, Rachel Wui, Fei Zhao, and I worked together to metaphorically express race and diversity through the use and study of typography.
Initially inspired by Hyperakt’s case study of its re-design of The Leonardo Museum. A museum dedicated to exploring the intersections of science, art, and technology. And by the current racial violence in the US and more specifically, the uprising of anti-Asian sentiment due to COVID-19. We wanted to find a way to combine all of our interests within the sciences and design into a unified project to speak on the issue of race that was directly affecting our community.
