Reeps one awards, townhouse
Brief: to design an awards event within the Kingston University Townhouse building, focusing on the programme, circulation, ergonomics and interactive exhibitions.
My design looks at artist Reeps One, with elements to his photography palette and art style. Circulation is controlled through concrete structures and visual connections to his work as a rapper and designer.
