FINAL DESIGN

The information i gathered from Steph as a person and a designer showed that she is a very cool layer back individual and her design approach shows simplicity, clean cut with a hint if swiss graphic design being an influence.

This is the spread i produced for my partner in indesign.

I'm happy with the out come i think it show elements of Steph in the design through the choice of colour and layout.

Concept boards

Where to find a bargain in leeds for second hand clothes? To answer this i have looked into varies vintage shops and charity shops around Leeds to find their location and rough price of clothing.

 I have sent out a questionnaire to ask current students in leeds a series of questions about how much they spend on clothing and whether they like to find a bargain. 

 I have also collected a series of map designs to help me get an idea of what type of design i would like to approach whether it be info graphics, simple for directions or an informative route from A to B.

Here are a few initial sketch to get an idea of what type of map i would like to design

Key elements for designing a map:

1.  Begin by defining your purpose and your audience

2.  Make your map a story

3.  Keep it simple

4. Direct the viewer’s eye

5.  Design for a viewing distance

Levi's Loves

Local illustrators were chosen to interpret the theme Levi's® Loves Local for Levi's® South Africa. The graphics will initially be used for a range of T-shirts and later for Levi's® 

merchandise. The shape of Africa had to be part of the design, showing South Africa clearly.
