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.
