Hello Universe
Modern Designers hired me to create a range of characters and artwork for a family friendly exhibition at the Science & Media Museum in Bradford, UK.
The exhibition coincided with the 50th anniversary of the moon landings and aimed to give children an introduction to the science of space, showing that there is more to it than astronauts and aliens (although we did include some of those).
Some of the early design exploration for the project can be seen here.
