HELLO, TYPOGRAPHY! Hello, Typography is a series to introduce children to the world of design and typography. Kit includes a book, flash cards, and a plush character featured in the series. Hello, Typography was the first project that sparked my interest in design for children.
DESIGN STUDIO Design Studio was an elective class available through CFC Summer School; a program who’s goal was to enrich the community of Champaign Urbana. The main aim of the class was to challenge students to be creative through story-telling and production. Each student created their own series that included a storybook, trading cards, and a character realized in plush form.
kusama Kusama is a modern painter that is famous for her polka dots. Using Kusama, I introduced pre-schoolers (ages 1-4) to the world of modern art, pattern, and shape. Brief art history was explained by using images and a Kusama puppet. The final project was inspired by one of Kusama’s installation pieces, where she enveloped a space completely with polka dots. Our students did the same on contact paper with a myraid of paper dots.
