Type Project.

For our type project, we were asked to produce a type face that reflected us. I wanted to design something fun and interesting.

Here is 'Trident'. A typeface I created based on the angles and structure of triangles. Each letter form being made up from columns and rows of the coloured polygons. I wanted the font to become a pattern in itself. I feel the use of shapes and colours incorporated into the letters has helped to achieve this.

ps. I do realise that 'Trident' may be a name of some sort of denture or mint product, but I liked the name, and felt it suited :)

Contemporary Retro.

As part of our end of year Graduate show, a committee has been created. I'm part of the Events Team, along with three other members. Our task so far has been to create and develop a theme for the Awards Show Evening. Different themes that were through of included Edwardian, Burlesque, Contemporary Retro and Modern Gallery Space.
This is the moodboard that I created based on the topic 'Contemporary Retro'. The main imagery that I found was based on colour and the contrast between white space. There was also a very geometric theme in alot of the examples, as well as use of repeat patterns.

New Cadbury bar....

Brief set by Cadbury. Task: To create a new chocolate bar that would predominately be aimed at women aged 25-35. The bar would serve as an indulgent 'me time' treat for females on the go or relaxing at home in the evening on the sofa.

in the bleak mid-winter........

Haven't blogged in a while.
So here are some wintery images. Taken in the homeland of Wales. Bitterly cold weather, leading to some severe frosting, frozen rivers and dramatic and quite scary looking icicles.
