Meatify — Raw Beauty

Meatify is a speculative design project aimed at highlighting the deceptive practices of the cosmetic industry — while also shining a light on the ridiculous lengths people will go to change their appearance. The idea stemmed from a stat stating that girls view over 500 ads a day, telling them how they should look. Raw meat was used to show people how convincing the industry can be — by putting a horrific thing in a "beautiful" setting, while contrasted with soft feminine tones. Meatify takes the byproducts from the meat industry and extracts the animal fat to create a natural filler to enhance the face and body.



Thesis Title: Embracing Eire

The resurgence of Celtic imagery in Irish design reflects a yearning among young people to connect with their country's history and culture. Designers purposefully employ these symbols to evoke a sense of community. Originating from the Celtic Revival, these symbols now serve as a continuation of efforts to establish a national identity, evolving into a branding strategy for Irish industry and tourism. This reflects a longing for a romanticized past amidst globalization. When designers incorporate Celtic iconography, they contribute to these ongoing projects, knowingly or unknowingly.
