Final Draft

1st design

Drawings from Sketch pad

This is the sketch introducing the 48 hour brief.  I have sketched some items that could be of ue when doing the brief with text making up the pattern and the outline of the title.

 

As I am doing my 'wearing type' design on tattoo's, I have researched some quotes that may be of use when bringing together the idea.  I am basing my tattoo on 'Life'.

 

These are designs I have come up with.  I have used allowed of swirls to represent life as it is not always straight forward.  I have used a flower and a butterfly to represent growing and some unique designs that may be used.

   

 

 

The decision has been made

I have decided to do the 2D design for a tattoo.  Once the tattoo has been designed, I will draw it on an individual and upload images. 

Exploring Ideas for 2D Solution

For the 2D solution, I feel that designing a tattoo based on typography would be ideal. As there are endless tattoo design available, when researching for tattoos that were purely designed with letters, I could not find any.

Exploring Ideas for Sculpture

 

I have thought of items that individuals wear and which would be most fun to create with the use of typography.  When researching sculptures have been made on dresses, shoes, jewelery, jumpers and t-shirts.  I feel that using type to design netted gloves would be a good idea as there are different patterns you can create.

Wearing Type

 

Research has been carried out to identify clothing items that are made by type.  Some of the images I have gathered are very interesting and prove that to design the items involve true dedication.  As the brief is open to any clothing item or a 2D solution, my idea has expanded.
