THE THIRD SPACE

by:

CAROLINE STANISKI

The Third Space is a space away from school and home where a student is most comfortable and can generate ideas. A middle school student will use this workbook with a mentor to learn the process of: “Design Thinking”(Empathy, Definition,Ideation, Prototyping, Evolving). They will then ideate and solve for a real problem within their community. When the student completes each activity, they will be able to place a sticker on each page as a form of positive affirmation.

 

The workbook would be in the form of a subscription, each month the student would get a different design problem to solve for. This months theme is: Transportation and tells the story of Ben, a 13 year old boy that cannot get to his bus on time and misses school because of his problem. The illustration style is child-like and appeals to a younger audience.

LEAP APP

by:

CAROLINA BENITEZ

When researching the world of Irish dance for the entirety of a semester, I found that the community is very focused on competition and not as much on tradition (what it used to be based on), as well as the scoring system is very out of date. This app is designed in order to modernize the scoring system and put it in a digital format as well as allow the dancers to review a judge and contest a score. This allows for a more fair scoring system and nonbiased judges. The health statistics in the training section also help with focusing on improving rather than winning. The overall design is meant to be sleek and easy to use while still being fun and colorful, thus appealing to its young audience.

THE INVISIBLE CHILDREN

by:

CAROLINA BENITEZ

I have been working with the children of migrant farm workers for about seven years now. This group of amazing individuals have taught me what it truly means to work hard and that family is everything. When given the prompt in class to make an editorial illustration about a social issue, I knew right away that I wanted to tell the story of one of the children. These vector illustrations were created in a way to draw the reader in with the bright colors but to also depict the hardships and difficulties faced by this group of people.

LE CHEILE IRISH DANCE BRANDING & WEBSITE

by:

BRITTNEY JOHNSON

For a semester-long design research project I had been studying the needs of those who Irish dance in Gainesville and all over the world. My findings taught me many things, but what stood out overall was that the Irish dance community is very isolated and divided when it should be united across nations. For this reason, I came up with an Irish Dance organization called Le Cheile (Gaelic for Togetherness) that would have a website created to cater to the needs and interests of any level of Irish dancer or any person interested in the Irish dance community. I also created the branding for a world showcase event Le Cheile would host.
