The Next DNA/Green Revolution series introduces a public-facing visual grammar for genetic technologies. Instead of relying on didactic diagrams, the work translates the invisible processes of gene intervention into a tangible node–edge–ring mesh that envelops specimens. Four plates explore emblematic scenarios of contemporary biotechnology: AquaAdvantage Salmon (growth acceleration), Bt Cotton (pest-resistant crops), Friendly™ Mosquitoes (vector control), and Super-Tomatoes (trait editing). The output extends beyond merely four posters, it represents a scalable system for science communication. The tone is intentionally neutral, encouraging informed debate about benefits, risks, and governance rather than amplifying fear or hype. This project demonstrates how graphic design can bridge disciplinary languages—connecting life science research with public understanding—through a systematic kit of components, an accessible typographic hierarchy, and an evidence-based approach.
