Project Statement
Communicating foreign concepts and ideas to the average consumer is a cornerstone of the design profession. For this project, we were pushed to communicate the meaning of a made-up word through a corresponding illustration. After many exercises in word creation and mashups, soustalgic is the term I eventually settled on. The term describes the feeling of getting a warm bowl of soup after hours of playing in the snow as a kid, or any other nostalgic memory that has to do with a soup. To follow the guidelines of having the drawing follow an isometric grid while looking exciting, I chose to have the letters falling out of the bowl as if some steaming alphabet soup had just been spilled.
