ChromAcademy

Hikari explored the statement as a saying and the idea of postponing discussions, then intentionally or unintentionally not returning to them, which led to ChromAcademy —supporting budding designers learn about colour blindness and accessible design through interactive lessons.

YourStudio said: ‘Hikari approached the project from a unique perspective, shining light on accessibility in design—something that we should all be more conscious of as practising designers. Their work was well researched and articulated, designed and executed to an extremely high standard with consideration to every detail with a real emphasis on the end user. The project showcased their incredible skill set across multiple design disciplines with a strong understanding of creating a visual identity and bringing it to life through motion and digital.‘
