The work started as a project about the risks of Rotterdam, and developed into a research/parody to phobias in Rotterdam. 50 People were asked to answer 31 questions about if they experience certain fears in Rotterdam. The questions and fears were based on phobias I selected, all which you can develop in the city. The results I transferred into percentages and corresponding info-graphics. The phobias were split up into 5 different categories: Social phobias, Personal phobias, Street phobias, Nature phobias and Space Phobias. I made 5 posters, each for every category. In the end I made 5 Rotterdam specific phobias, based on the five highest scoring phobias. The sixth poster displayed these five Rotterdam specific phobias, with new names. The new names are completed with the location, or specific situation, were most responders experienced this fear. The last step was to make stickers of the five Rotterdam specific phobias and place them on the accompanying locations. When you walk in Rotterdam you can see the stickers and be more aware of the fears that live there.
