OVERVIEW

This We Design Exhibition card deck is designed to accompany Design Museum Everywhere's online exhibition, We Design.

From the exhibition:

"Our latest exhibition brings together creatives from a wide range of backgrounds to examine and celebrate the range of career paths, applications, and impact in design."

This card deck pairs the exhibition content with written prompts that invite reflection on our career paths and our relationship to the communities in which we design and live.

RESULTS

The Design Museum Education Programs team revised a minimally sourced, original card deck to produce this latest deck, featuring 20 new cards researched, written, and source-checked.

For more information regarding my work on this project, please reach out to me.
