Congratulations Kelly!

It was a clear class majority decision to select Kelly's concept to brand the Cert. IV Design exhibition/website. Well done! It's clear that Kelly went on quite a journey to arrive at this.
I think it will translate nicely to the website and the actual exhibition display and am really looking forward to seeing the printed invitations...
Thanks for all the great work you put into this brief.

Final invitation submitted for vote.

I like the thought that each letter represents a team members piece of art work.

Fun da mental as anything

Thought as there was a bit of interest in the name to look up the visual thesaurus for  meanings. 
So many ways to write it also....

 Dada
A nihilistic art movement that flourished in Europe early in the twentieth century based on irrationality and negation of the accepted laws of beauty.

Exhibition Theme - Veronica

"Fun Da Mentals" - i:e 'designers gone mad' is really catchy in my opinion. The ideas that i have come up are:

* Ripped up curtains over the windows. Or anywhere throughout the room.
* Dirty and worn out furniture. An example would be having a chair with 3 legs.
* Dimmed lights. Maybe having the main lights over the art work.
* Wall pictures broken.
* Shattered glass (clearly not actual glass).

I am thinking of Harry Potter 5 (6?) at the start where Dumbles and Harry got to the professor's house and it's been destroyed...except if we decide to go with this theme we won't put dragon's blood in the ceiling.

Also it'll be really fun to dress up as mental designers.

These are quick ideas so i welcome any ideas :)
