Manifest Poster

The manifesto for the design festival is finalised, with added logo and hashtags. The ideas that we based our festival on are based around connecting people. We want everyone to feel welcome and want to attend, get involved and enjoy themselves. The events that will be held will help people rediscover the city and experience things in new ways.

Manifesto for M.D.F

Made in Manchester

Design will be in and of the City. 

Design, in its most general terms, will come from within Manchesters creative base.

Network and Connectivity 

We want to think about connectivity, and form new networks, through use of image, sound and space that are not just in tangible and tactile forms.

Urban Exploration and rediscovery,

Exploring the known and the unknown, we aim to rediscover the City.

Experiential

We want to think about the experiential value of a Design festival; experiencing the old in new ways. 

We want to think about interactive design, and interacting in the city as individuals to create a community.

SEE YOUR OWN CITY

Manifestos

In the manifesto writing session we had to think of what our ideas are and what angles we will be starting our briefs from. There were a lot of similar ideas between people, such as making things to be sustainable, being more eco friendly, to stop making 'crap'.

Some of my personal ideas on a manifesto are :

Age and wellbeing 

What do people really value?

Do we value our time?

Grow your own

Educating in more useful areas

Global impacts

Recycling
