Interning at the retail institute

I’ve really enjoyed working on the case study for the retail institute.

However, I didn’t feel like I was getting anywhere with the work, and it was just distracting me from my university project. As there is little urgency for the case study  portfolio booklet  to be finished I have decided, along with Olga at the retail institute  to finish it after my final university project is complete.

I envisage a period of time, after hand in but before graduating where I will have time and the space to tie up loss ends like this and update my portfolio, also there is my Smart sock and vegan sweets that I have put on the back burner and am keen to complete.

Images below show iterations of layout and artwork that I have done so far.

What isnt explained in the images below is the format of text which Olga Munro and I have agreed is

Problem (50 words)

What is the specific problem you identified within the brief topic? Who experiences this problem, and how does it impact them?

– Process (75 words)
How did you investigate this issue – what were your key insights? What journey did you go through to get to your final solution?

– Solution (50 words )
What is your proposed solution? How will it solve the problem?

This is a format suggested in the RSA awards I really like it, its simple with a, who, what why structure that works for me. Also this structure is recognised as a design text layout when showcasing design.
