Concept of a new Student's Pass for Ravensbourne
As we all know, education in general and University are not made of exciting and interesting things only. Mountains of paper, scary documents and "boring" stuff are behind the corner.After the Mozilla Festival at Ravensbourne, thanks to the energy of the event, my mind got inspired.
The main source of my inspiration was this photograph I took (Image no1 below) of the inside of the University building. What I really liked about it, is the shape of the windows and the fact that all together they create a pattern on the wall.
We are working at the moment on a Fashion Design project and we are exploring different patterns and textures. Consequently I decided to transfer and recreate this pattern in a graphic way, using softwares obviously.

After a couple of minutes working and sketching, I was inspired again. (what a perfect day!)
On my desk, next to my laptop I saw the card of my University and I immediately thought about how boring its design was. Of course it is an object made for a purpose only, but why not giving it a nice appearance to our eyes too?
After a good hour of Adobe Illustrator and sketches this is the final result. I have to say I am really happy and proud of it!

At the front, the colour is defined by the course the student frequents. The overall contains all the basic information such as a photograph, name, id numbers, course and the logo of the University.
In conclusion, I really liked working on a project not related to my Course. It was nice being inspired and realize this piece.
I like to imagine that one day all Ravensbourne students will have this card! :)
