OUGD405 Studio Brief 1 | Research & Interim Crit

From my first bit of research I found a particular illustration I liked that was part of the backing paper for a frame in Debenhams. 


As I said, I would look into this type of design except look at designs that interest me more; so I looked into geometric animals. First I just googled 'geometric animals' and got a good response from because as I knew it was quite a common design topic. 


I chose some of my favourites from this page and then went for more specific by looking at the suggestions above the images. After looking into these designs I had a go at it myself.

Interim Crit


My interim crit was very helpful as it led me on a different path that led to my finished designs. First I showed that I had been looking into geometric design and more specifically, animals. The feedback I got on my research and the designs I had put together myself was pretty good as everyone liked them and said they could see them being a suitable image for backing paper. 
John said that the way the animals were made from single lines reminded him of a cage which made me think of how the animals and cages link together. He also said that 3 other people in the class were also looking at geometric animal designs which made me think I should maybe move away from this topic and look at something new. 

After this crit I went away from animals and looked at cages instead, but keeping to the geometric lines and shapes I had previously researched.
