For the major project my research question was going to be " The Future of Money" as I'm interested in the object, money, which people need to live on every day and seems to be the great and hidden power dominating and driving the whole world working; however, to certain degree, money does not do all the good for people's well beings and what is more is the problems come with money. How far do people understand the core of money? I tried to make out what the role design can play in the future of money.
Nevertheless, this sphere is too broad and the volume of information could be overwhelming to my time schedule. As a result, I then turned to focus on the issue that many major cities are suffering from, Homelessness, sticking to one of my faiths, Design is to bring happiness to our society.
Streeter is a food truck which will be moving around different areas to hire local homeless people and their stories will be printed on the food package. If people buy the food they can understand the background stories of homeless people who they don’t normally have chances to speak to. By this way, it can help homeless people connect with the local community. I started the project from interviewing some hopeless people in Kingston to make out why they ended up being homeless; therefore, their true stories can become part of this project. The results might reverse some people’s ideas. Not all the homeless people are lazy to find jobs.
