BA (Hons) Graphic Design Visual Thesis Dissertation 2021
Written and Designed by Deveton Boakye at University of Wolverhampton
I decided to focus my dissertation on the topic "Nike and Adidas: How They Impact The Streetwear Culture Through The Power of Design Branding" due to the strong passion I have for sneakers/trainers. As a result, I design a book that contained my dissertation, with a shoe box as the packaging. The design is inspired by funky colours of the 80s, hip-hop, skateboarding, and graffiti which were all vital to the rise of the streetwear culture.
