From Zipeng:

Masks not only protect you and others, but also provide a new way of self-expression.

Your assignment: Design a mask that makes a statement.

Yup, that’s it! Wearing a mask is a simple way to protect yourself and others, and this assignment is a simple way to explore your creativity.

Don’t forget to use the hashtag #HOMwork2020 tag @zzdesign and @homsweethom when you post your work on Instagram. We’ll be sharing our favorites in our Stories all week. Can’t wait to see what creative mask designs you come up with!

Lauren Hom

Lauren Hom is a designer, letterer, and educator. A self-proclaimed "artist with a business brain", she picked up hand lettering as a hobby while studying advertising in college. Over the next few years (and thanks to the power of the internet), she leveraged a few clever passion projects into a thriving design career.

When she's not designing, you can probably find her cooking an elaborate vegetarian meal at home or finally making her way through the niche craft supplies she bought last year.
