People try to fit into today’s commercialized society. While under the pressure of staying up to date with the digital age standards, people unknowingly reach for conformity—building a distance between their outside appearance and their person inside.

My thesis of Inside Out manifests in the form of a design code that is included within a year long process book. The design code keeps with the idea of anonymity by hiding the student’s confessions within a complex system of lines and shapes [alphabet]. Perhaps unknown to them, many of the students’ shared common themes: the idea of responsibilities, cheating, self-image and independence. In order to decipher the code, one must start in the center and read out—Inside Out. By solving the code, one can create a connection with these shared themes.
