OUGD502 - Studio Brief 01 - Thornville Haus

Introducing Thornville Haus, a personal project from myself and my housemates of Thornville Road. This idea all started off one day when we found ourself bored so we set the challenge to design a poster in under three minutes, once the three minutes were up we revealed our designs and we believed that a brewing concept was behind it all and took the oppurtiunity to start Thornville Haus. We created an Instagram account to spread the posters online and we try to add a few designs weekly, but the rules have changed a bit since we set it up as we no longer design them under three minutes. The concepts behind the designs are not to be taken seriously as we give our own spin on trends, events and happenings in our humble abode such as the boiler breaking and leaving us with beyond freezing showers for three days.

At this stage we are just enjoying stepping away from University work for ten minutes or so to let something else occupy our mind, Thornville Haus allows us to express and explore our own styles in any way we want without having restrictions in a humorous way, thats what makes it so enjoyable. We've lightly discussed how we could take it further in the future by maybe making a publication of all the posters or even hosting our own exhibition showcasing the best designs.
