Finding a problem/issue that I wanted to explore, research and then find a design solution to help solve the issue. I chose my focus to be about stress and anxiety because throughout my experience as a college student, I have found myself struggling with these feelings. I wanted to create a solution that can help other people with this issue as well.
I created a program called Tangled Thoughts. The goal of this program is to create a safe space where people can vent and write down everything that is bothering them. The program utilizes the process of mind mapping to help people reevaluate their stress. The solution has a digital and print solution since digital can access a wider range of people, while print can have a therapeutic effect for people. To go along with the program, I created social media posts and postcards to act as entry points.
