This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.

Re:Generate working with the Design Matters project
The Re:Generate team were commissioned to advise and then record the Design Matters scheme, which aimed to give local young people a better understanding of design and architecture. It also offered them the chance to create some of their own work.
We used several different methods to record the gallery visits, expeditions, and finally the week-long course at Central St Martins and the subsequent day-trip to Paris. Our photographs, videos and write-ups were then displayed in the Design Matters tent in the Fulham New Deals for the Community summer festival for the whole community to see.
Sometimes it seems that young people speak one language, and adults, businesses and government organisations speak another.
We speak both.
We are a group of young people between ages 16 and 18. We have had extensive communication training through the Fulham New Deals for the Community initiative. Through Re:Generate, we provide professional consulting services for businesses and government organisations, building stonger and more sustainable communities.
We connect businesses and young people. If you have a message for young people, we have the tools and insights you need to be heard.
