  • Shannyce Adamson
A visual representation an except from the book 'Ornament in crime' by Adolf Loos aiming to disagree with the bias presented within the text, this project showcases the harmonious relationship between ornamentation and modernisation. This can be seen through the exploration of different materials such as wood , typography, various paper types, layout, photography and graphic design. Additionally there is a recurring theme of the Disney character 'Mickey Mouse' running through this publication however distorted it is a useful tool to ornament. All of the elements used in this project have a direct relation to the text in question, presented in a unique and diverse manner.
