Risograph Poster – Durrant illustrated an risograph poster and zine based on the discovery of finding out that she suffers from vertigo. The zine shows the stages she went through at hospital until a doctor tells her what her diagnosis is. It is a very personal story shown through different characters and setting illustrations.

Risograph Zine – Here is Durrant's risograph printed zine.

Space Project – For this Durrant worked in collaboration with her fellow illustration and graphic design students. This is the final design, created by Durrant to resemble the James Webb Telescope, featuring her teammates’ designs of different star signs.

Product Design – Here Durrant presents an illustrated design inspired by Russian or nesting dolls, reimagined as a concept of a “nesting house”. Here it shows the different styles of houses within the United Kingdom over the years.

The Toys – Here is Durrant's final project, a set of 3D printed fruit characters for young children. They are based around different fruit, with career based outfits, which can be interchangeable.
