Some examples of works I looked at as I was taking the module (also avalable on the refferences from the essay).

These were the designers which inspired me the most and which educated my thinking. These works illustrated all the theories we've been talking about during the module, and they made everything very clear as I was learning it and getting in touch with contemporary thinking related to design in general.

These are my top refferences which made me conclude that mainly, every designer can focus on individuality but still working in collaboration and using modification in order to produce pieces and turn them into more personal outcomes. Also the theory of Roland Barthes is represented in all of these works and essays.

The theory of the birth of the reader (death of the author) was my main focus on the subjects studied in this module. All the workshops could apply to it and illustrate it.
