Process Poster

This process poster is showing the progression of work from conception and object studies to a final model of a space. The designer that was the inspiration and guiding force for this project is Coco Chanel, the predominate woman n designer of the 20th century. This process also included a 2d concept model before a the 3d dymension was even considered. With every step there were pages of process sketches produced. These a handfull of these sketches can be seen on the poster.
The poster began with layout sketched and lists of what to include and well as writing a concept statement to include. After sketching, the next step was to plan the space out in In Desgin and then to place photos and text.
This project helped me to grow a lot in my skills using the program and figuring out what I could do with it. I would like to have had a more interesting graphic background, and maybe to have created some graphics in Illustratior for this poster. Over all it does do it's job and shows the process to create a model of abstract space.

First Logo

Here is my fist personal logo that I created using Indesign and Photoshop. Creating a logo for me to use and mark my designs began with sketching and diagramming out words images and concepts of who I am as a designer. I came decided not to have just my name and the fact that I was a designer conveyed in the text, and to leave my personal touch to the imagery of the logo. With imagary I needed to express art and energy. This was accompilshes wiht useing a paintsplatter brush tool to make the cross bar of the A in my first name. I feel this design logo exemplifies my personality as a designer.
This is not design is not set in stone as how my logo must stay. I would like to experiment with the addition of color, as well as reworking some shapes, text fonts and overall orentation. As a beginning point it serves my needs.
