I haven’t yet decided on which topic I’m going to choose but my favorite so far is the topic about music festivals.
1) The relevance of infographics and guidance systems at music festivals
Infographics and guidance systems play a crucial role at music festivals. These visual aids not only serve to inform visitors about the line-up and venues, but also create an atmosphere of expectation and orientation. In this context, infographics and wayfinding systems are essential tools for providing festival-goers with an optimal experience while ensuring the smooth running of the event.

2) The future of out-of-home advertising
In a world where people are increasingly mobile and at the same time surrounded by a flood of digital information, OOH advertising needs to be more creative and innovative than ever. From personalized and interactive ads to the integration of augmented reality and a focus on sustainability, OOH advertising will need to adapt in the coming years.

3) Can anyone be a graphic designer these days?
Programs like Canva offer tools and templates that allow people without extensive design knowledge to create appealing graphics. These programs are able to automate and simplify many basic design tasks. This raises the question of whether these programs will eventually replace the job of a graphic designer.
