The Rhythmic Structure_DIRECTION

Due to this project being at a faster pace than project 1, decision-making was quick and fast, so I tried to simplify my decision by only producing black and white motifs aswell as designs based around the colour pallete chosen. I started by freely creating different marks, responding through objects around my home as well as using other materials to create unique marks and textures with mainly a black medium, the intention was to create clean, crisp line in response to 1950s artwork.

Whilst creating the lines, I needed them to be easily made a rhythmic pattern, the lines of each mark have different qualities to them, by some being bold and strong marks and others being loose to create a flow affect. Working with black and white to give a toned, structured effect.

The colour pallete I introduced in my designs was sourced from Marnie Fogg book, there was 3 main colours that I liked when gathering research, and the colours selected were colours that I found related to present day, as well as bringing out qualities in my design work.

From my feedback it was suggested of using the motifs and using them as backgrounds as well as foregrounds to give them a textured effect, the idea of using the motifs as a background and foreground would take my designs further away from the 1950s style.
