Pick Up After Your Dog
Product Design + Graphic Design
Adobe illustrator, Wood, Paper
As a dog owner, I often forgot to bring waste bags and wished there were dispensers in my neighborhood. I also noticed neighbors putting up handwritten signs reminding others to clean up—helpful, but not exactly inviting. In response, I designed and installed combined signage and waste bag dispensers for community use, expanding the project to five locations along my dog’s usual routes. I later documented the project’s impact through a zine featuring photography and visual storytelling.
