To begin with the project, beginning with research as the first step into the progress will be necessary. Looking at other artists creations or Ideas will help me finalize an idea / ideas for my final design. Although researching the exact definition of Point - Line - Plane could help me understand the sole purpose of the project itself and what it means, but also why is it important.
Looking around the internet, I came across an interesting Graphic Designer from Australia named ‘’Nick Barclays’’, Nick creates minimalist posters which have intrigued me due to their simplicity. I will research more about this specific artist and dive more into the works he has created that attract my eye but as well as the online reviews.
This week I began exploring artists who specialize in simplistic posters but still use the fundamental techniques in their arts. I decided to pick one artist who inspired me to create and think about my Point-Line-Plane designs differently. (Nick Barclays)
Writing the ‘’introduction’’ or ‘’definition’’ of the fundamental building blocks of design (including Point, Line, Plane) has been helping me to appropriately come forward with new ideas as it is getting clearer now what to do.
Not necessarily, as I have been focusing on researching the topic and designers who use similar techniques in their works.
Finishing off the class designs on the topic of Point-Line-Plane has created a peace of mind for me personally as I begin to understand how we are meant to execute these designs and how they have to be structured.
Currently I am doing rough sketches of possible outcomes in the designs of ‘’point’’ on my ipad aswell as hand sketches in my sketchbook. Thinking of many ways to show the chosen words ‘’reflect’’ and ‘’dominance’’, while having a look on Nick Barclays work from earlier on, it is helping to understand the positioning of certain objects in the scene to create the correct atmosphere.
This week I focused on doing rough sketches of possible outcomes on ‘’point’’ in the final designs. Research on Nick Barclays is finished as well.
I explored each area of the project we are given, Point-Line-Planes. Although Planes are coming across quite hard to understand and create for me personally.
Next week I will create final mock-ups of the sketched designs for ‘’Point’’ and ‘’Line’’ to give me time to focus on planes alone.
