3 Final Collections

My final collections are for different contexts; I have shown the paper printed designs as wallpaper, though they could be used for stationery, or indoor furnishings, while the digital designs could be used for decorating a variety of outdoor surfaces such as cars, garden furniture and structures, and buildings as well as stationery, wallpaper and indoor furnishings.

Paper Collection





   

I wanted to present these designs that had been hand drawn and produced using a traditional screen printing method in a modern context to provide contrast. The brightly coloured chair helps to bring out the bold colour in my designs.



1st Digital Collection





These designs were produced digitally using photoshop; to contrast with this technique and associated style, I presented them in more traditional looking contexts.

Designs in Context: Small Scale Garden Pavilions
Designs in Context: Larger scale Buildings
2nd Digital Collection

Teresa suggested that I create some more simple designs, that could potentially be used alongside other bolder designs. To give a feeling of space I used a lighter background, and fewer, well spaced motifs.





I decided to use a mixture of old and new contexts for these simpler designs, to show them at different scales and that design can be used in imaginative ways to fit any context; they didn't work well directly shown on the castle wall, but could form an interesting pathway.
