PROBLEM

To find ways of turning a dissertation into a graphic publication, a coffee table book.

INSIGHT

My dissertation was just a PDF, but I wanted it to be much more than that. I had passion for what I wrote about and wanted it to be memorable.

SOLUTION

Designing football artefacts in the style of existing religious artefacts, to show the parallel between football and religion.

SKILLS

INITIAL IDEAS

THE BOOK

Two halves. The Old Testament is the dissertation with moderate tweaks. The New Testament is the graphic, picture led side.

THE EXHIBITION

Shown at the university degree show: a lectern with the finished book and religious props around it.

BRAND ASSETS AND APP

The book became a brand, with a hypothetical app where users submit their own cases of football and religion overlapping.
