front design



Time Erosion

Front Design created a floor that is based on time erosion. The idea is the hole floor was painted gold and the covered over by a grey layer. The used a certain type of grey paint so that when people walked on the floor it rubbed away the grey layer reveling the gold. This in turn shows the most walked n areas in the room.

Time Erosion - project proposal

Personal brief

Time Erosion

For this project I am going to explore the natural erosion that occurs. I am mainly interested in exploring my close surrounds like for example my halls and university building gathering primary research. I wish to utilise these findings in order to explore various patterns and textures which can then be incorporated into a surface design. I order to achieve a successful design I need a large body of exhausted research of found marks. I will also gather some secondary research from books and the internet in order to support and nourish my findings.

Weave 5

Final weave was a random one and i was looking more at texture. Iv done this so i can then potentially work into it more.

Weave 4

Think this is one of the least successful. Im not a 100% sure on the colour pallet.

Weave 3

Think this is a successful piece. A lot more texture present.

 I decided to use paper threads in which i dyed to get the wood colour.

Weave 2

My favourite weave. Think this is the most effective and contains a lot of detail.

Weave - Paper

Decided to use the discards to create a Weave. I now want to try deconstruct it and work into the piece.

Layer Process

Glued all the pages together left to dry then peeled back the layers.

Layers development

Tried experimenting with variouse types of paper to see how the layering affect works.

 
                        Thin lined paper                                               Cartridge paper

                      Tracing paper                                              Print foil onto paper

Development on layering of wallpaper

Left. Looked at the contextual research in order to exam the lines and forms created by the layers.

Right. An exaggerated cross section of how the layers of wallpaper would sit on the wall.

Think both pictures worked well. Really like some of the shapes created in the left picture.

Colour study - Contextual image.

Find this picture in prticular really imteresting. Really like the amount of layers and the in depth colour pallet.

The Kings Speech - Film

Like this particular set in the film. Think the wallpaper in a deconstruced form is very interesting and adds a lot of texture and character

.

Novice Personal photographs

Images that i found and liked that novice's have posted on there blogs.

Interesting forms being produced in the drape.

Charles Linden- Farmhouse Renovation

Really like the colouring and layers in both Photograps. Ties in nicely with deconstruction with it being decaying wallpaper. 

Colour study 2

 Feel like this is a good match. However i dont think its as interesting as the first one.

Research Building sight

 Research drawings and pictures on sight.

Colour study 1

Helped me to understand colour more. Really liked the outcome of the colour wrap.
