As part of a design brief, I developed a visual identity and exhibition concept to celebrate 60 years of Irish–Finnish diplomatic relations. My proposal was shortlisted and presented to the Finnish ambassador in Ireland.

• Core Idea: Built around the theme of friendship, expressed through Cairdeas (Irish) and Ystävyys (Finnish), symbolising the symbiotic relationship between the two nations.

• Exhibition Concept: Structured around the themes Past, Present, and Future.

  • Past — celebrating shared histories and cultural connections.

  • Present — highlighting cooperation and ambitions both nations share today.

  • Future — envisioning possibilities for collaboration and growth.

• Proposed Venue: The National Botanic Gardens, Dublin — chosen as a living metaphor for growth, sustainability, and interconnection, aligning with both countries’ values.
