This project explores how everyday food culture can be transformed into meaningful visual narratives. By treating food as both medium and message, I documented ephemera, visualized sound, and archived cultural experiences to position food as a “commonplace” for design. The publication highlights the role of documentation and archiving in graphic design, framing food as a site of memory, storytelling, and collective identity.
How can everyday food culture be documented, archived, and transformed into meaningful visual narratives in graphic design?
Inspired by PROCESS: A Tomato Project, I approached food as a medium, material, and text. I developed strategies such as documenting ephemera, visualizing music, and archiving cultural experiences, positioning food as a “commonplace” for design thinking.

Outcome

A publication that explores documentation and archiving as core practices in design, highlighting food culture as both personal memory and collective narrative.
