‘Rana Plaza’ Project Statement:

The collapse of Rana Plaza; a commercial building housing garment factories in Bangladesh, was named the deadliest accident in the garment industry’s history. Using Rana Plaza as a case study I will be highlighting the exploitation of labour that underpins the fast fashion industry. I will inform viewers of the context and narrative leading up to this event using typographic details and hierarchies, emphasising the poor treatment of garment factory workers and the pressures they face.
