Design isn’t neutral and
neither are you

Publication

2025/2026

Design Isn’t Neutral is a publication built around the idea that design always carries meaning—it’s never just visual. The project is heavily grounded in research, drawing on different perspectives around bias, representation, and power within graphic communication. That research then directly informs the visual decisions throughout, from typography and colour to layout and imagery. Overall, it’s about making those hidden influences more visible, and showing how design choices can shape the way we see and understand the world.
