-- CONSTRUCTION DRY-RUN --

So construction dry-run hand in happened yesterday.... Let's just say: 


-- DETAIL DESIGN 02: UPDATED --

Next step - DETAIL DESIGN PART 2! I've made some changes to my design... They have improved the design and have helped to simplify the elements and add more character to the spaces... This was a pretty difficult task, but hey - I managed to do quite a lot considering the level of difficulty of the design... The final product is really going to be quite something.... here is what I have so far :)

-- FINAL POSTER LAYOUTS --

Here are my proposed final poster layouts! I have taken the main inspiration from the Eclipse logo design - the three stripes are from the "lip" in eclipse, and the colour choices are part of the identity of the museum. The rest kinda speaks for itself :) Please comment and suggest improvements!

-- PRODUCT DESIGN FINAL HAND IN --

So, here's my final product design hand result as well as a photo of my final design.. It was such a hectic learning curb for me as a designer. There were so many problems with getting this pendant finished, and as you can see, the final product still wasn't perfect, but it will be for final design portfolio! I got it made in Joburg through a family friend, and asked for it to get copper plated, using a gold copper coloured metal, and it came back to PE in a light metallic pink colour, so that needs fixing ASAP! I got the outside of it sprayed black at an autobody shop - one that specialises in the restoration of old cars, so they really know their stuff. The black turned out stunning :) Have a look... 


Final light design - hanging a bit skew but still a pretty picture perfect final design...

The bulb I used comes from CT from Hoi P'loy designs - ITS HUGE!
