You are an engineer, 2023 
B5 zine


My Dad started his engineering career in 1984 
at Lucas Aerospace. His love for engineering 
was apparent from a young age and has been 
his career ever since. Going from being an apprenticeship to being a qualified engineer 
to now running his own business integrating 
his hobby of motorbikes. 

I decided to interview my dad to find out more about his career. After talking to my Dad I visited his garage. I looked at his apprenticeship files, tools he had made and many things he has curated over the many years. I produced an B5 zine, exploring what it means to be an engineer and what that means to my Dad and for me. 

The zine includes an A3 inventory pull out poster, a tip-in that shows how engineering and designers may be similar and photography 
of my Dads items.
