Design Context Brief - Final print

FOR MY DESIGN CONTEXT BRIEF I HAVE  CHOSEN TO FOCUS ON FOUR DIFFERENT SECTIONS, AND PORTRAY THEM ON A LARGE POSTER. THESE SECTIONS ARE WHAT I BASE MY PRACTISE ON AND HOW I GENERATE VISUALS FOR MY DESIGNS AND PROJECTS.

AS DESIGN CONTEXT IS ALL ABOUT INSPIRATIONS, THIS IS WHAT I WANTED TO FOCUS ON, EXCLUDING CONCEPTS, ANNOTATION AND PRECISION. I WANTED TO STRIP DOWN TO WHAT INFLUENCES ME VISUALLY AND WHAT MY EYE IS DRAWN TO NATURALLY.

THESE FOUR THINGS ARE   COLOUR / OBJECTS / IMAGES / MOVEMENT

I WANTED TO VISUALLY DESIGN THIS POSTER USING THESE FOUR INFLUENCES AS WELL AS EXPLAINING THEM WITHIN THE CONTENT. I CHOSE TO LOOK AT THIS BRIEF AS A FUN AND NATURALLY DESIGNED BRIEF WITH NO FORMAL PLAN OF COLOUR, STOCK OR LAYOUT OR ANY WRONG OR RIGHT WAY TO DESIGN, REFLECTING WHAT DESIGN CONTEXT MEANS TO ME AS A DESIGNER.  

THE COLLECTION OF ART, MIXTURES OF COLOUR, MISTAKES AND COLLAGE ARE PERFECT EXAMPLES OF WHAT I'M ATTRACTED TO IN TERMS OF COLOUR.

MY DESIGN PROCESS IS QUITE MESSY AND I LIKE TO EXPERIMENT A LOT BEFORE MAKING ANY FORMAL DECISIONS, ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES A CONCEPT AND PLAN NEEDS TO BE PUT IN PLACE WITHIN SOME BRIEFS, WITHIN MY DESIGN CONCEPT BRIEF I WANT TO FOCUS ENTIRELY ON HOW I LIKE TO WORK AND NOT HOW I SHOULD, I LIKE TO THINK THAT IN THE FUTURE I CAN LEARN TO APPLY MY RANDOM EXPERIMENTS AND MESSY APPROACH TOWARDS DESIGN TO SOME SORT OF STRUCTURE, THIS WAY I CAN USE THE IMAGE WHICH I HAVE PRODUCED TO CONSTRUCTIVE USE AND NOT JUST FOR DESIGN WITHOUT PURPOSE.    

I ALSO WANTED TO INCLUDE IMAGES AND EXAMPLES OF THE KIND OF THINGS I SEE EVERYDAY WHICH INFORM MY DESIGN DECISIONS, THE THINGS WHICH I SUBLIMINARLY GET INSPIRED BY, I OFTEN TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THESE THINGS AND KEEP THEM IN A FOLDER ON MY MAC TO REVERT BACK TO WHEN CREATING VISUALS BOTH HAND RENDERED AND DIGITALLY, I INCLUDED THESE ON MY POSTER.

OTHER PROCESSES, PHOTOGRAPHY, PRINT, SCREEN, FASHION, PRODUCTS, PROMOTION, PATTERN HAVE BEEN PORTRAYED ON MY POSTER.
