For my puzzle on The Bauhaus, I wanted to have the pieces reflect the feelings of the movement; futuristic, modular, useful, and simple. This puzzle is laser cut out of acrylic, each one is 6"x8", with the same pattern cut and etched in each, so the different colored pieces can be placed in other puzzles.

I also included instruction booklets to go along with each puzzle, using the visual and spoken vernacular typically associated with the period the piece is from. For the Bauhaus I chose to go for strict, simple instructions, that leave little room for mis-interpretation while also encouraging experimentation.

For my puzzle for the Fillmore, I chose to go with a more traditional puzzle material, it is just book board with printed paper glued onto it, with a matte finish. I laser cut the pieces to reflect the psychedelic ideas of the Fillmore posters, and rejecting normal conventions of graphic design, my favorite feature of this puzzle is that it only has three corner pieces, the bottom left corner is actually two pieces meeting in the corner.

For this instruction booklet, I wanted to encourage the user to really enjoy doing this in whatever manner they see fit. Whether that's doing it with friends, listening to music, or getting high while putting it together.

For the Digital Revolution, I chose to do a digital puzzle, through a website that allows you to create your own jigsaw puzzle with whatever image you want. 

Since the puzzle was not physical, the first thing I knew I needed to do was include a QR code link to the puzzle within the instruction manual, I then went on to look at and use April Greiman's work for inspiration for this booklet's design.
