Client: Brothers Make x Arts University Bournemouth
Project: Keep Us In the Loop
Year: 2025
Brief
Design a product that embraces circular principles by rethinking the lifecycle of recycled plastic. Using HDPE or PP, the outcome needed to align with the Brothers Make ethos, celebrate the unique aesthetic of recycled materials, and promote a more sustainable, circular system.
Outcome
Working in a pair with fellow course mate Amara, we identified festivals as a key opportunity for impact. Keep Us In the Loop is a proposed partnership between Brothers Make and Bournemouth 7s Festival, built around a circular reuse system. We curated a festival survival kit from existing Brothers Make products and proposed a return-and-reuse scheme to reduce waste year-on-year. The project developed into a broader sustainability collaboration, including mock-ups for branding, on-site signage, and a dynamic educational stall. We closely with Bournemouth 7s’ head of events.
Role
Creative direction for festival presence—developing visuals, scheme name, signage and conceptual layouts for an interactive space combining retail, live demos, and education.
