BMW + QUT Design Academy Project

Overview

This project was created in collaboration with the BMW/QUT Design Academy located on QUT's Kelvin Grove campus. Our focus was to create an educational game experience aimed at younger children to promote environmental awareness and foster a sense of contribution in accordance with BMW's brand values of sustainability and community.
Additionally, we designed a companion app for the game to facilitate a more family-focused element, allowing Parents and other family members to participate in gameplay without having to use additional mobile devices.
This project was completed under NDA, and as such downloads and gallery items are not available for this project.
