Throughout the spring semester of 2024, CampusParc partnered with Ohio State professors Ben McCorkle from the Department of English and Peter Chan from the Department of Design, along with one of Peter's design classes, to create visual compositions around seven common CampusParc customer personas. Each student interviewed a faculty or staff member of the university or medical center that fit into one of the seven persona's. The composed artwork showcases key personality elements and displays the intent of each individual journeying to Ohio State's Columbus campus.
Project Summary
Embarking on the journey to the university campus encompasses a range of emotions and experiences; each imbued with significance and meaning. Whether it's a graduate student preparing to present a pivotal research proposal, a nurse eagerly anticipating the care of a young patient, or an artist excitedly attending a performance addressing the climate crisis, each journey can evoke feelings of anticipation, uncertainty, hope, appreciation, or any of several other emotions.
Journeying Towards Wellbeing: Exploring the Emotional Landscape of Driving to Campus is a collaborative endeavor between the Department of Design, the Department of English, and CampusParc at The Ohio State University. Our goal is to visually capture the diverse emotional experiences of different members of the university community—faculty, staff, students, visitors, event attendees, and medical center patients—as they make their way to and from campus, each of them navigating a unique professional and personal route. Through this exploration, we aim to inspire thoughtful, imaginative reflections on gratitude and wellbeing, fostering a sense of comfort, health, and happiness among our community members while sparking meaningful dialogues on gratitude, care, and community engagement.
The four selected winners for the project are below. We invite you to visit their profile page to view their banner and to read more about them as designers. Your engagement with their work is crucial in fostering a sense of community and appreciation for the diverse emotional experiences we all share.
