“No Flags” is a collection that explores how design can challenge cultural assumptions and social connotations. Through deconstructing common-use design objects and distorting their traditional aesthetic qualities, we wanted to highlight the entrenchment of cultural implications in design. By metaphorically subverting the symbolism of flags and using joyful combinations of colors, we foster dialogue, openness, and non-nationalist viewpoints.
