Challenge

The design had to merge two different cultural identities—MIT’s high-tech medical branding and Indonesia’s rich heritage—into a single wearable artwork. It needed to be visually balanced and suitable for mass production.

Objective

To create a T-shirt illustration combining the Hack Medicine event logo with Indonesian visual elements such as traditional patterns and cultural symbols. The goal was to spark conversation, build cultural presence, and offer a design that attendees would proudly wear.

Results

The final design was a vibrant fusion of modern tech and Indonesian identity. It was well-received at the event, generating attention and compliments from both local and international participants. The T-shirt helped BioFarma establish a culturally confident presence on a global stage.
