FINAL PROJECT

Requirements

Utilizing the data collected from the research trip, students are to produce visual design outcomes that reflect their interpretation and definition of “Framing”, bearing in mind to consider cultural and aesthetic aspects, balanced with their design knowledge. Various

directions and approaches can be engaged in, such as experimental design/art with the use of manual/digital or combination of both media.

a) Final Project Compilation

As for the final project, we updated the slides and documents and began our idea exploration from each one of us. Each of us created our idea prototypes based on our sketches and mood boards. For the final decision, we decided to go with idea #1 (Adrianna's Make up Box) and continue to finalize it.

REFLECTION

Through my experience with intercultural design, I've discovered its ability to transform interactions and experiences significantly. It encourages us to question assumptions, challenge stereotypes, and break down biases, leading to a more inclusive design process.

Intercultural design also emphasizes empathy and humility, urging us to approach cultural exchange with openness and respect. By prioritizing empathy in our design approach, we can develop solutions that connect with people from various backgrounds.

By collaborating with other group members certainly helps to inspire new ideas and styles, allowing us to create a product that is cultural and functional. Most importantly, I have made a lot of new friends, trying new food, and experiencing a different world throughout my travels in Osaka. It was an unforgettable experience by embracing new culture and the way of people living life so differently. By embracing a different culture, we can unlock a full potential of creativity and build a more inclusive and harmonious world.
