My concept is displaying me as a “Design Captain” where I, through the use of a map, am able to navigate through “Mother Design” and it's treacherous obstacles, by ASKING for directions. Because sometimes we all need a little help to get to greater heights. I choose to embody a “Design Captain” because my overall concept is based around “My Ultimate Ideal Day”, that is laying in the middle of the ocean and basking under the sky. The beach and the ocean is my safe space. So, I hope that by showing that, they can have a sense of who I am as a person.
Captains, that roam the seas, are commonly seen as bearded sea experts that are willing go down with their ship. To me, that symbolises wiseness and trustworthiness, that people depend on when out at sea because that is where mother nature prevails if you are a novice.
Hence, I want to promote me as a captain, showing that me and my designs are able to bring people through good and bad times, making sure the audience can trust me for a comfortable ride, as I am willing to do whatever it takes to get to the destination no matter the obstacles. All to show that I am a reliable and calm person that can add value to the team, if you will have me on board.
