Final Module 703 Conclusion
I have used this module to thoroughly research the supply chain, the global apparel industry, brands, digital innovations and sustainable, environmental and circular issues and solutions; my research has led me on many paths and I have been pleased to discover the on-demand brands, and manufacturing services that are available within the UK, the on-demand service has enabled me to understand how I could use this offer within my final project and I have used my knowledge, understanding and research to produce a business model diagram that incorporates all that I feel needs to be included for a circular brand, with the inclusion of the digital innovations I have researched and the new ways of accessing revenue streams. During this module I have continued to change and ask questions that I wanted to answer, and having a defined methodology enabled me to set a clear path and direction to my research and provided me with an understanding on how I needed to achieve this, whilst I continue to remind myself that “a designers role is to find solutions”, I have used specific courses on digital innovation and sustainability to enable me to better understand these areas and they have provided me with opportunities to explore technologies I may not have had access to without, whilst also providing me with clear and informed educational research information. I have chose to present my research in the form of a report with the hope that I could further present it within education or within community projects as I feel strongly that I would like to pass on my gained research and knowledge in an areas where action and awareness by institutions, consumers and the industry is required. Moving into Module 705, I feel I have a strong sense of what I need to achieve, and aim to develop a collection whilst following the business model, developing a conceptual webpage with links to virtual environments and the potential to explore further innovations, digital try-ons and in game experiences.
