Role: Designer / Fabricator
Team Size: 12
Client: Seattle Design Festival
Timeline: Aug-Sept 2017
Summary: We wanted to create a space for people to leave their mark in a positive way so we found the lightest, whitest netting, a ton of sharpies, and gave them each a balloon to express their hopes and dreams.
