~ Posters of a tale - Idea generation ~

This is a research lead brief - for this I need to conduct a body of research into a particular written text or group of. My ideas for such categories so far are...

- Roahl Dahl books
- Well known/most iconic philosophical and/or phycological texts
- Books by Jane Austin
- Books by Sylvia Plath
- Iconic feminist writings

I chose categories of reading/research that I feel I would personally find interesting and could really get stuck into in terms of developing a good concept. 

I felt the most interesting for me in terms of context and in depth research will be the philosophical and phycological texts. It will give me a greater understanding of context and application within design.

My personal areas of interest initially being (5 of each)
