YGGDRASIL

By: Chloe Goodman + Munther Elsayed

This project, Yggdrasil, is an organized space that aims to showcase past projects from fellow NuVu students and motivate current students. Although there was already a space to display pst projects, feedback showed that it was complicated, cluttered, and disorderly. This is where the idea of Yggdrasil was born. Yggdrasil was designed to be an easy-to-understand, eye-catching way of demonstrating the core values of NuVu and showcasing the projects themselves. 

It was also meant to be a motivator for current students to challenge and push themselves harder in order to flaunt their projects. Yggdrasil is named, fittingly, after the World Tree in Norse Mythology since the project I shaped like a tree. There are nine branches - to match the nine worlds - each presenting projects that are specifically chosen with these values in mind; the design itself, the impact of the project, the empathy, and the innovation and creativity that went into the project.
