In Canadian residential schools, Indigenous children were forced to attend, where they experience physical, mental, and sexual abuse, often resulting in death, suicide, and a multitude of other issues. It is not an exaggeration to call it torture, led by the Canadian Government. This is our Canada.
We were tasked in creating an infographic pertaining to this topic. I decided to create a form of a tour of your typical residential school.
Planning and Rough Work

Final Artifact
Developed in Adobe XD, this virtual tour uses micro rooms to pass through the halls of a residential school. Clicking on the red Significance object pulls up more information and infographics on the subject.

Final Thoughts
I'd like to continue developing this project and possibly readapting it for a different program, such as Figma. Adding ambient sound, audio of survivor interviews, and more interactive elements would be my next step.
