In late 2024, I began studying design at the Open University. This page documents some of the projects I’ve worked on thus far.
T-shirt design
The first project for my design course was to create a pattern for a t-shirt. I began by drawing a pattern out by hand, then digitising it so it could be printed onto photo paper. Once I’d done this, I ironed the pattern onto the shirt.
Board game design – Clash of the Couriers
For this project we were tasked with creating a board game based around a particular service, for which I chose delivering. The board game I’ve created is called Clash of the Couriers. In this game, participants take the role of delivery drivers and compete against each other to score the most points by delivering parcels. On the way, they must watch out for hazards, traps set by other players and use their bonus cards to try and gain an advantage. Since this is only a prototype, I used Lego blocks as a substitute for various playing pieces. For a full breakdown of the rules and more information regarding the game, check out the Clash of the Couriers rulebook.
