The second Project work is my wallpaper design created by me (Ogechi) through spiral design blocks from Snap and is currently used as an interior design wallpaper for an ICT technology office room in Ikeja, Lagos Nigeria. The purpose of this design is to teach our students how to use design thinking with the snap block codes to innovate. Please kindly see the link below.
