  1. Look beyond the obvious. Stretch your creative muscles. Warm up your imagination. Creativity CAN be nurtured and trained with practice.

  2. Design Challenge #1 (Group Work): Office Supply Drawer Raid Everyone is familiar with a stapler. It’s been a staple (pun intended) of our office culture since the dawn of cubicles. You now have ten minutes to come up with 10 unconventional ways to use a stapler. And it can’t be to staple something. Look at it closely, open it up, turn it upside-down, lay it on its side.

  3. Numbers and letters are beautiful artistic forms, but we have difficulty seeing them as anything but what they truly mean – so much so that we often don’t see the beauty in their form. Only after turning the letters inside and out or flipping the numbers over can we truly appreciate their design. Your task is to do just that. This will be easiest on the computer, but can be done on paper as well. Type or write your full name. Now recreate your name using letters and numbers. The only rule is that you can’t use the actual letters. So if your name starts with an “S”, you can use any form of any other letter or number, backwards or forwards, upside down or right side up, anything you want, except an actual “S”. Design Challenge #2:

  4. Design Challenge #3: U-TurnThe challenge of designing street signs is to come up with something that communicates to everyone, regardless of language or culture. We’re all familiar with what common signs signify, but what if you had to design a street sign for something unusual? Create signs for the following situations:1. Stop if You Want2. Donuts Ahead3. No Applying Makeup or Shaving While Riding a Tricycle4. No Throwing Hamsters5. Clothing Optional

  5. Design Challenge #4: Picto-what?Using only four straight lines and a circle, create a pictogram for each of these 6 words: Pressure, Delirious, Lucky, Suspense, Dangerous and Joyful. You can arrange the lines and the circle in whatever fashion you desire, but you can only 1use four lines and once circle, the lines must be of equal length and not divided in any way, and the circle must be kept whole.

  6. Design Challenge #5 – Pants:The shirt for your legsAdvertising is all about memorable brand communication. And there’s usually little time or space to convey the primary sellingProposition for a particular product. Headlines are a perfect example of this. What can be said in a short amount of time that’s both memorable and in line with the brand message? That is your task. You must create three headlines each for a series of products that are used everyday, by nearly every person on the planet: AIR, WATER, and PANTS
