About the final project for: Visual Storytelling with Food: Designing New Perspectives

Visual Storytelling with Food: Designing New Perspectives

“Congratulations! You have reached the end of this Domestika course. Thank you for joining me. I hope you've enjoyed learning about my process to create food objects that speak about social concerns and now feel ready to create your own! Before saying goodbye, let's refresh on the necessary steps to complete your project.

  • First, choose the food artifact, ingredient, or tool you want to work with.
  • Then, explore its universe to find the right question that will frame your project. Use the "How Might We" format to guide you in connecting with the artifact's symbolism, function, and form.

  • Now, it's time to access the deeper meaning of your object. Add value to your concept to create a semantic narrative.
  • Lastly, design the piece. Create a model and craft your object. If needed, consider collaborating with an artisan.
And that's all! Thanks again for enrolling in my course. I can't wait to see your creative sparks and contemplate your deeper statements about society. You can share your project by clicking "Create your project" above. Remember to experiment, be playful, and have fun! I also encourage you to help and give advice to other students in this course – working together can be very helpful and inspiring. I'll be reviewing your work too, and I'll give you feedback as often as I can. See you in the forum. ”

“Final Project We've reached the end of the course. I hope that you learned everything to develop your narrative through your own eating artifact. Be original and creative when uploading your final project. I would love to see all the steps of your creative process. Start by making your own collection of artifacts. I'd like to see your mind map template and how you identified those pieces of information called insights. You can share with us how you formulate your "how might we" questions using the template I left in the Additional Resources. You could work over the iteration grid to generat...”

After graduating as an industrial design engineer at Elisava School of Design, Nicole discovered her passion for gastronomy by designing tableware for the leading, 3-Michelin star restaurant El Celler de Can Roca.

She discovered the power food has to generate empathy, awaken critical perspectives on daily actions and choices, and create opportunities to reflect on the unspoken. Nicole has since collaborated with cultural institutions like FoodCultura Foundation, BCD Barcelona Center of Design, and El Tercer Paraíso. She is also the founder of Food Design Nation and Random Happiness Art Collective.
