Project 3: Currency Redesign
For this challenge, I was inspired to do a bit more then just update the design and color we know. I loved the idea of having pioneers in American history on our money; not just have Presidents and founding fathers, but also those key to some of our most outstanding achievements. Being personally interested and fascinated by space and tech myself, I decided to make my currency redesign revolve around the idea of scientific advancement using the same size as the existing bills but adding in some other elements such as a transparent strip and bright colors. Depicted here is Gordon Cooper, one of the “Original Seven” who flew the Mercury missions at the very beginning of our space program
