Final-year Interior Architecture students collaborated with Brighton & Hove Museums on a new interactive QR code trail that reshapes how visitors experience and understand museum artefacts.
Using historical artefacts at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery, our students have created an interactive QR code trail that re-imagines how these objects are presented – offering visitors a fresh way to explore the past and experience history in new, meaningful ways.
By scanning QR codes on select artefacts, visitors can uncover re-imagined spaces created by students. These spaces reflect the artefacts’ origins and cultural significance, their journey to UK museums, and the voices that have been overlooked. Launching on 29 March and running until 14 May 2025, the trail makes history more interactive, inviting people to question and engage rather than just observe.

A Product Design graduate has earned a collaboration with alumni Tom Meades’ sustainable design studio, gomi, to make bags from waste courier uniforms.
Angus Clifford, who graduated from the university this summer with a degree in Product Design BSc(Hons), has teamed up with Tom Meades, co-founder and chief designer at gomi, to bring Angus’s final year university project to life.
Each year, millions of courier uniforms for companies including Deliveroo, Just East, Uber Eats – and many more – are handed out, most of which ultimately end up in landfill. Angus’s project, which was among the many innovative solutions showcased by Brighton students at this year’s Graduate Summer Shows (Instagram), focused on finding a sustainable response to this waste challenge.

The architecture and design online magazine Dezeen, which has over three million monthly readers, recently featured a selection of product design students from the University, showcasing the impressive work they completed as part of their final-year projects.
The Product Design BSc(Hons) course at Brighton prepares students for a career in design through collaborative work that mirrors a real-world industry environment. This article highlights just a handful of projects that our students undertook, which now serve as the foundation for their professional portfolios.

Studying and working with lecturers and other students has been a great experience. The good relationships I developed with my lecturers really stood out and made my experience more memorable. It genuinely felt like they do what they do because they enjoy teaching, and they are good at it, which is truly motivating.
Tell us a bit about your project.
I had two different ideas for my final year project. One was an application for tracking online user activity based on browser fingerprints and integrating AI to create user profiles based on this – a similar concept to how personalised advertisements work – and the other one was creating a password manager application that uses passwordless authentication. I am interested in these topics because they both apply modern technologies to address cyber security problems without compromising privacy or usability.
The final product was influenced by both ideas. Choosing Password Spray attacks as the main aim of detection was a great challenge, as it already bypasses basic defence mechanisms, and even large companies like Microsoft are falling victim of it. The final product – if enhanced further – could either function as a vulnerability testing mechanism to audit the effectiveness of existing security protocols, or as an additional function embedded in an existing Intrusion Detection System (IDS) or Intrusion Prevention System (IPS).
