My project reimagines the everyday school and gym bag through a sustainable, multifunctional design. Designed for students aged 15–25, it transforms seamlessly from a backpack to a duffle, while reducing waste by incorporating recycled textiles and repurposed materials from old bags. The design focuses on durability, comfort, and organisation, supported by targeted research, user feedback, and hands-on experimentation. More than just a bag, this project responds to real user needs and growing demand for eco-conscious products. It aims to prove that sustainability and style can coexist, and that thoughtful design can make everyday routines simpler, smarter, and more responsible.

Dragonfly and beetle conservation is critically underrepresented in both media and conservation initiatives, even as their populations decline at alarming rates. As they are bioindicators, these insects reflect the health of entire ecosystems, yet they receive only a fraction of the attention and funding directed towards more popular species. My goal is to address this by raising awareness and generating support for insect conservation through a range of handcrafted metal, acrylic, and wooden jewellery inspired by dragonflies and beetles. I am looking for supporters with experience in innovative, sustainable materials and production methods.

Let's go designers.
