Morgan Pickford

"I based my major project on the historic Silk Road and wanted to represent the journey through Japan, China and the Middle-East. I took inspiration from lots of different things that were exchanged along the way such as traditional art in the form of Kintsugi and the religious Buddhist practices like Ikebana. I designed for multiple different product areas for the home to ensure the project would be versatile for future employment opportunities. This project really opened my eyes into contextual practices and gave me an outlet to design for travel in a time where we are unable and I love how varied yet pulled together my final collections are!
