Not so Basics of Basic Tools
These seven posters display the tools I use almost every day as a designer. These tools never seemed like much to me before, but when I began asking myself questions about them, I realized that they each have rich back stories.
I researched each tool, wanting to know what materials each tool was made of, how those materials were collected, where they were collected, who collected them, how they were used in the creation of each tool,the design of the tools, and more.
I choose what was most interesting to me about these tools, illustrating and explaining their stories it in a set of posters. These tools – that are so easy to take for granted – deserve a closer look.
