Att planera själva utställningen var inte särskilt svår, däremot tankegångarna under själva processen var ganska jobbig. Jag påverkades ganska mycket av att göra något som ska spegla en själv.

?A designer rarely works alone?. The first sentence of Jonas Löwgren and Erik Stolterman's chapter on design as a social process made me curious. What if a designer worked alone? What are the actual differences between working on a project alone and as part of a group? How would it influence the creative process?
