  RSA Competition Entry - Helping the elderly to sleep betterFor the RSA Student Design Awards this year we entered the 'Sleep Matters' brief which asked us to design a solution for a specific sleep problem.

Graphic DesignerBristol Culture (Bristol City Council, Bristol museums and Art gallery)
Aug 2017 - Jul 2018Queens Rd, Bristol BS8 1RL, UKInternship
The Culture Team is made up of Bristol City Council, Bristol Museum, M Shed, Blaise Castle and three historic houses. As a designer working across the different sites, I have had to be flexible and to adapt and be creative with different brand guidelines. I have worked on many projects with Bristol Culture, from type setting labels for a gallery at the museum, creating Christmas posters, creating motion work for digital screens (which have been seen by one million visitors each year) and supporting with design work and project management for the Bristol Music Exhibition. I also led a design workshop during a school visit where the student chose a artefact they found interesting and created a poster on InDesign featuring a photo of the artefact, drawings, summary and their fun facts.
