Final Pieces; Set of Cushions

My textured pattern inspired cushions...


Design Development; Final Design



Here are what my designs will look like when I print and form the fabric into cushions. I have designed these images through photoshop to give a visual of what my cushions will look like in an interior space.

Mood Board; Rusted Moroccan Buildings/Objects

 
 
For this mood board I have stuck with the Moroccan theme and looked at buildings in Morocco and Moroccan themed buildings most of which have weathered or been damaged which I really like. This links well with my project title "Pattern" as the rusted paint and corroded concrete/brick has left textured patterns. Furthermore I am now inspired to looking at other sources like metal and concrete which have been weathered/rusted or damaged overtime to create textured pattern.

CV Annotations


CV Annotations

 
For someone who specialises in textiles like me, this CV is something that I would like to create. It a very simplistic yet a unique design and still looks quite formal. The front of the CV is plain and easy to read with simple detail around the edges (stitch) yet when it is turned to the back a colourful piece of fabric can be seen which makes this particular CV creative.

 
 
Personally I think this CV is “cute” and very appealing to look out. The layout of it is the opposite of what a CV usually looks like. I think it looks like quite a simple CV however when you look closely at the tea cups, they have a lot of detail. I feel this CV is very imaginative.
 
 
I think this is a great example of a creative CV mainly because it is not a regular A4 CV. They’ve used origami techniques to give it an unusual appearance. This CV really drew me in compared to some.
 
The CV itself is very simplistic however the fact that it is presented in the air makes it creative. The CV reminds me of my childhood therefore I feel it is meant to be “fun” and “exciting” to look at.
 
 
 
I think this creative CV is very professional looking. I really like the colour scheme and the layout however personally I think this CV would not grab my attention straight away as it looks too similar to a regular job CV.

FMP; Sample Video

To create this unusual sample, I used a rectangular piece of thin copper and used my own screen that I had designed to print this "concrete" like pattern. The substance I used was not printing binder as the pigments in the binder separated, not like it would when pasted onto fabric. Instead I used something which I knew would stick... puff binder.
