Challenges always come in threes, or Sustainable:Me?

The main part of Year 2 Term one's Module was the Sustainable:Me? (or maybe Me!) part. We were briefed by Lulu, a member of the Futerra sutainability group, on a product or products that would educate the design community about designing sustainably. Our tutor told us that we would be doing both a web/screen-based and print-based out come to be assessed (both in groups), and also a personal product that would not be assessed, but would be examined by the member of Futerra.

The group projects were initially a challenge as not only were we organising with a group, but for the first time we were working on two projects at once, so we had to plan meetings between both. This brought out the best and worst in people, with unprepared-ness hindering in places from some people.

Nevertheless, by the end of the brief we all had something to be proud of, and my outcome for the solo project was something I was pleased with, concept-wise if not in the execution.
