PAUL VOGEL BRIEF
The Paul Vogel brief is a S/S27 men’s shirt collection inspired by rustic architecture among American deserts. Designing for Father and son matching moments at summer BBQs, this collection is full of engaging motifs, uplifting colours and bold geometrics. My work for this project was heavily inspired by key trends identified for S/S27, especially sun-drenched tones and rework wear styles, where layered designs are a focal point. I was awarded a commendation for my designs in this collection.
For the Kent and Stowe live brief I created two designs for gardening gloves keeping within 4 pantone colours and designing a pattern to fit small scale products. My first design was heavily inspired by natures patchworking, organic shapes, textural tree bark and terrazzo wood and tiles. From this I created a design including earthy tones and irregular shapes, hoping to also hide the dirt patches created when gardening.
My second design was the polar opposite, a pattern bright and lively, not allowing you to look away. This design was inspired by London Undergrounds Moquette fabrics and their design purpose of never gong out of style. Using this as part of my inspiration I hope that my gloves would never need to be replaced due to trends or no fitting the users personal style due to pattern feeling so vivid and radiant.
