A Sign for Change

  • Jessica Duggan

This data based project uses information from a first hand survey curated by me, asking the public "what colour is climate change?" With a mere 12 years to stop the effects of climate breakdown becoming irreversible, and with it being such a hot topic (literally) today, I wondered why we do not have a universal sign or logo to communicate the catastrophe in an instant. Challenging typical communication methods in design, my approach to making 'A Sign for Change' was to use colour as the sole communication tool. Could colour within itself hold enough power to communicate an issue as large as climate change?
