About

Whether it’s in a sketchbook or on a chopping board, the steps of any creative process are just as important as the final product. With a dash of hard work, a pinch of planning, and a handful of thyme, designers all have their own recipe for creation.

This design show, we wanted to showcase the AU graphic design student’s pieces keeping in mind the importance of all the hard work and time that went into these pieces. By paralleling these two creative processes, we are jumping out of the sketchbook and into the fire this year!

Each design student is characterized as a chef, and given their own unique spotlight to showcase their specialty as a designer , as well as their favorite foods! Using a more illustration based design for this year’s show, we wanted to bridge the viewer and designer in a fun and dynamic way. Our visuals rely heavily on representing a combination of food and design in one image.
