Typography 1

Here is the start of my typography experiments

Experiment 1

Here is my first experiment. I based it on an old paper/scroll map theme. It’s nothing to do with shoes but I thought it would be interesting to experiment with these designs and incorporate them into the shoe. As you can see I went with out scraps of paper between the cuts I laid out on the shoe. I used these purely because I thought it would be an interesting material to use. I then coloured the rest of the shoe different shades of brown that were on the paper so it all looked nice and complimented each other. I then added a paper texture over the main parts of the shoe the same way as I explained in my previous post. These posts are just focusing on the shoe not on the whole image that’s why the background is just a plain solid colour.

Shoe Design Experiments

Here is the base model for a few experiments I will be doing. I’ll be editing the shoe with different colours and textures using photoshop

Here is my other shoe design finalised. Now it is time to start working on some typography and other designs. I have done the same thing to this design that I did to the previous shoe I uploaded but this time I just used a different texture which looks nice and has worked well. I got the image off the internet, I then lowered the opacity of it to about 50% and then rubbed out the parts of the image I didn’t need and the above image is the outcome of that.
