Information Design - winter/spring 2021The Trash We Create
The trash we create is an information design project consisting of posters and an interactive prototype that expresses the issues around modern day recycling. It also takes a deeper look at the waste created from online shopping in the aftermath of COVID and all of it’s implications.
The project includes an issue, a call to action, and a proposed solution, all displayed in a interactive medium to help spread information on selected topic.
Phase 1: Research
To start I completed research and compiled it into a document that could later inform the project
In the first phase of this project, my call to action was directed more at signing petitions and trying to stop purchases with plastic completely but through this I found that there was a privilege shown within this solution that not all audiences could enact.
Phase 2: Publication
After revising the call to action, the second phase of my project focused on making a scrollable informative piece on the topic.

Phase 3: Interactive
The final publication kept some of the elements of the online shopping idea but became more about interactive elements and informing the audience. Soon after the project had been finalized, the interactive element unfortunately had to be exported to static screens but is available below as a scrollable pdf.
