COLORFUL CONNECTIONS

Overview

This was a community intervention project intended to bring strangers together while expressing their personality and emotions through art. The final outcome was accomplished through group effort and the collaging of each participant’s 4 by 4 inch contribution. Participation was gathered from multiple locations on Miami University Campus in Oxford, Ohio.

Initial Planning

We started by deciding on our general target audience to engage with, what kind of design lever we would use to engage with them, and what we intended to accomplish through our designed event. Once these core decisions were made, our group was able to dive into planning out duties and the time frame it would take to get all the materials we needed together and carry out the event.

Process

During the course of the time period we were running the event, we also put together an app prototype to showcase the process behind the project.
