This patchwork banner that uses buttons to communicate a message was hanging in a park near Bournemouth during the easter break. It was a a directional sign pointing passers by to the direction of fair where the theme involved language and words. The Designer used a cautionary word to represent our outer selves, the hard facade we apply within life and combined this with the sensitivity of textiles techniques of patchwork and beading. It spoke about the importance of language and the integral role that words play in every aspect of life. Analysing language and altering the context of words is a big part of graphic design. We always have to be conscious of what we are writing and how it will be perceived. For this reason, I really liked this topical idea.
