A group of 15 international SD students from the Masters of Design (Design Practices) programme are now showcasing a collection of innovative facemasks designed by themselves. They all participated in a six-week intensive workshop organized by SD earlier this year.

The designs tackle not only the issue of Asian size and fit, but also the needs of material technology, branding strategy and public health policy. The “Masters of Mask” project has brought together expertise from the SizeChina Research Lab (SD), PolyU’s School of Nursing at and Princess Margaret Hospital, Hong Kong.
