"Beanbugs" Product Concept

My final year project "BeanBugs" is a humorous, climate conversation focused product concept, a large unignorable bag charm, the opposite of understated, a travel companion that accompanies you in the absence of actual wildlife. The idea behind the project was biodiversity loss, using a brightly coloured creature and highly climate sensitive species to serve as the vehicle for commentary on the state of our natural environment; a commentary that employs the irony of a loud accessory that contrasts with our current context wherein vibrancy and diversity is quietly disappearing.
