Graphic Design Logo concepts and final products using Adob
This is the first logo concept made in Adobe Illustrator. The main inspiration was wordplay based on how much of a deeply connected community Cathedral Quater is, represented through a puzzle piece. The letter was chosen to complement the rounded edges while the black background provides a contrast.
This is the second logo concept made in Adobe Illustrator. The main inspiration was to bring together parts and objects that represented areas of Cathedral Quater-churches (stained/coloured glass), galleries/art studios (paintbrush), restaurants (spoon), and bars (beer mug).
This is the third logo concept made in Adobe Illustrator. The main inspiration was experimenting with lettering and the brick walls found throughout the city. This is the fourth logo concept made in Adobe Illustrator. I tried to bring in brighter colours and a line of motion while focusing on the idea of stained glass.
This is the final logo based on my second concept, made in adobe illustrator. I added in blue liquid as an element to animate and changed the paintbrush for a pencil to make a more recognisable object.
This is the final logo based on my first and third concepts, made in Adobe Illustrator. I kept the theme of bricks and puzzle pieces but added a 3D aspect to the piece.
Case Study-Gender
For this case study I focused on the work of Kim Leutwyler
Graphic Design-using photography concepts
While experimenting with variations of the poster design for my chosen exhibition-The Mac “10 years of painting shows”-I decided to step away from digital means and experiment with sculpture and photography. Using found waste (cardboard box and magazine pages) around my house I created a textured and patterned “collage” room with a stool to add a 3D aspect to the piece. This room was meant to represent the gallery while the use of multiple colours and designs represented the exhibition’s abstract feel and the variety of pieces. I cut a small hole in one corner of the box and shone a light through it to create a dynamic lighting effect on the work.
Using Figma I added string-like lettering and a black background to the piece.
