The Nice people at Welcome, Skate store, Leeds.


 






 Whilst taking these images, I had to keep in mind my project, and what would work where.  The store wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but it was close enough for me to work with the images and not ruin the concept.








If my Photoshop skills/ general patience are up to it I thought I could try editing the logo onto the sleeves of these tees.




Important to think about what different contexts the identity can be seen.  For example, in a changing room on a mirror could be a sticker, small or big.  There is the possibility of vinyls all over the walls, or patterned curtains on the changing rooms.






The last two images are more for me to explore whether my vinyl from the floor to the walls could work as a proposal through photoshop, rather than the real thing.  I was hoping to get an image of a long white room with a white wall at the back, however, it isn't so easy when shots have been designed to look good, not blank canvases. 

After many unfortunate attempts of taking images inside clothing stores that would suit my brand I went down to Welcome, and the lovely people gave me permission, finally.

Beyond- Part I

Beyond - Part I
Beyond the International Year of Astronomy print series, 2011, by graphic designer and illustrator, 
Simon C Page.





 The International Year of Chemistry,








To remember!
All of these designs are in poster format.  They are simple and the main aspect is the imagery.  Page has used different weights and textures through patterns to make this minimalist design very interesting and arresting.  The latter is something I need to achieve when designing in general for my clothing company.  These posters are promoting something educational, as will I.  I think the reason they work so well is because of the strong visuals- something I should incorporate?
Think about it.

Specialist finishing




Embossed for certain.  However, unsure whether they have printed black with a spot varnish or just glossy black foil.

Wall vinyl.  Simple and bold in this monochrome environment (not just the photograph).



More on wall vinyls


Another Example for Dry London.






This has given me an idea to incorporate some form of vinyl visual within the store of my company.  However, this time, using colour- and lots of it.  Will be an interesting contrast between my block black and white logo.
