Women in Design & Barbie.

A poster promoting The Open Quote Project as part of my FMP which aims to create a discoure in regards to the gender disparity within design.

Also featuring Computer Engineer Barbie The next part of this project is buying Computer Engineer Barbie and mashing her with Architect Barbie and viola: Graphic Design Barbie will be born. Until Mattel actually releases one, we have Pantone Barbie to keep us going. (Personally, I'm waiting out for the release of Anarchist Feminist Gender-Queer Barbie)

Open Quote Initiative

Contuined from The Open Quote Initiative The book encapsulating the discoure of the gender imbalance within the design industry. After a long night of binding the project is really coming together.

The Open Quote Initiative

A little snapshot of my current project focusing on the under representation of women in design. The Open Quote Initiative aims to create a discourse within the design community, capturing some existing conversations already occurring in our industry on the gender disparty.

Each pull quote from the book has a corresponding number which links to The Open Quote Initiative Forum where the debate continues and provides a platform for designers and thinkers to further engage in the issues highlighted.

The book is set in Mrs Eaves, a typeface which pays homage to one of the many women in typographic history.
