Goals
Renewal and regeneration were the inspiration for my design, represented by abstracted images of “forget-me-not” flowers. Bright vibrant colours are overlaid with subtle delicate lines, integrated with the skyline of Oxford. The text “The Gift Of Life” runs throughout the entire design as a message to us all of the importance of organ donation.
