Colour Schemes & Origami Patterns
Below are the images of the Origami illustration with the colour schemes. 


Origami Cranes





Origami Stars




Feedback
  • The lighter pastel colours definitely stand out more, it's softer for the eyes.
  • The vivid bright colours can be a quite harsh to the eyes.
  • Like the shape of the origami Cranes and Stars. The three dimensional shape gives them more dimension maybe try and add darker shades to define the three dimensional look you're going for. 
  • The sunset colour scheme is nice for the cranes. 
  • All designs look great could imagine them use for wrapping paper! 
  • Maybe try and outline the vectors to a different colour. For example for the darker colours you added a white outline so it defines the three dimensional shape? 
  • Like how it's paper theme and colours relating to the name of the competition 'Papergang'. 
  • If you didn't tell me the concept/background of the designs I wouldn't of known that the stars are also origami. They look like 3D stars illustrative. 
  • Like how minimalistic and simple the design is, could be used for a lot of stationary products. 
  • Pastel colour scheme reminds me an unicorn concept.  
  • Maybe add a background shape to the design. Looks a bit plain and isolated.
By taking the feedback to consideration as to choosing which design to upload to the competition. There was a tie between both the origami Cranes and Stars vector as they were both equally popular. Whilst the colour scheme the lighter and pastel was more appealing to the eye. I will experiment with the more pastel colour theme and add a background shape to make the design look slightly busy.

Studio Brief 01 - How Do You Read? - Second Development

In this blog, I have finish printing out the physical  small publication book of Design Principles. I believe this second  development work was successful as the colours of the type has  been nicely and evenly printed out.The information on the  pages are arranged properly in the right order as to the the one  on the Macbook. However, I need to chose a different type of paper  stock which is much sturdier, e.g - card stock. As when I put the rubber band around the spine of the book it curls. Even though the  visuals of the book is very minimalistic and simple I believe this is  appropriate to the audience who would read this kind of book context.  Especially, for young students who want to learn the right knowledge  and information of design principles, whilst becoming a Graphic Designer. For the colour scheme I went for a very neutral yet colourful scheme,  as these colours only outline the significant factors of Design...

Studio Brief 01 - Secret 7: Final Design

In this design board, I have chosen this Record Sleeve design cover to be my final  submission for the live brief - Secret 7. I particular favoured this design as it really  portrayed the artists song and style well as the variety of the different shades of blue tones gave a good theme for the overall concept of the chosen lyric that I selected. “You were the perfect star. Again describing the meaning of the design will be yet again explained here. The symbolism  of the star is similar to a heart of the person who is going through a heart break thus this  is similar feeling when the break bit is being cracked like glass. The glass look makes it  highlight that the person’s heart is very sensitive and weak and the colours of the different  shades/tones of blue express their unhappiness and also how innocent and pure they are. The way the star outline repeats depicts how the person is slowing forgetting the perfect star  which has broken the heart...

Objectivity - Subjectivity

Evaluation: Overall, my final evaluation including looking at my peers/year tutors feedback of my logotype. Has shown that I needed to do more research into my colours, as I tried to stick with the original colours of the current logo of Krispy Kreme. As my last critique group told me to stick with them without changing it. Some liked and disliked the outline of the typography as some say it looked like icing, whilst others said it would be better if it were fuller so it makes more of an impact. Most of the comment was about the bad colour choices of the Green as it has connotations of an industrial, chemical and unhealthy look. But some said it could have connotations of high sugar as for a donut. Everyone recognised the doughnut shape for the logo, some saw the neon letter as an American diner look as my critique group told me to stay with the retro look. One of my others peers comment, that the use of the contrast between the Sans Serifs and Serif typography is appropriate to d...
