During the first group meeting, we discussed what we liked about the Burberry lecture and what points we’d like to carry forward into our collaboration project. Sustainability, the famous Brit influence, chav culture, and polar explorers piqued our interest.

Armed with this information we went away to conduct our own research to bring back to the group. I went looking for inspiration in line with the Burberry polar explorers, famous Brits, and sustainable theme.

Famous Brit, Sir David Attenborough, born in Middlesex in 1926, may not be a rock star but he is a national treasure and his message of global warming and the urgency of sustainability is relevant today now more than ever.

Putting together a mood board of British wildlife to help present my ideas to the rest of the group I thought we could use colour, textures and patterns inspired by British wildlife.
