social vision and design education now

this project began as an investigation, sponsored by LCC,

into the industrial safety propaganda of WW2

it quickly grew into something with its own momentum

the project now combines

history - research - practice - education

 

social vision

(design by {education) by design}

is a project from Richmond upon Thames College in assocciation

with Kingston University FDA Graphic Communications course

 

social vision is the projection, through graphic design and visual culture,

of an intelligent and ethical framework for the individaul as part of a larger

community and provides an antidote to the idea of personal interest as a

consequence of individualistic consumption

 

social vision promises a new kind of dialogue between client and designer

and a refocusing of the designer's role in society today

 

our mission is to provide you with a broader interpretation of the term

problem solving in the form of applied visual research

 

to bring the project to life we are bringing together clients from the local

community with tomorrows designers today

become part of something bigger
