DESCRIPTION
This isn’t one particular project that I have worked on in the past that is mainly just patterns. One skill that I am particularly good at is pattern design. I love creating different patterns whether they are geometrical or random. It’s something I like to do to pass the time and I have gotten pretty good at them.
STEP ONE: SKETCHES
The only time I make sketches for patterns is when they are being used for bigger projects. For example, when I was assigned a project to create a promotional ad for a makeup brand.
PROMOTIONAL AD PATTERN
BRANDING PATTERN
In my Sophomore year of College, I was tasked with creating a personal brand that showed who I am as a designer. I decided to use this assignment to focus on my brand around my pattern designs as it is a skill I believe I am strongest with.
CULINARY POPUP
Senior year of college, I worked with a group of culinary students from my college. A few other students and I were tasked with creating a menu and other design elements for a popup restaurant. Along with a menu, I created a few posters explaining each dish on the menu as well as a poster of a map that showed where each of the dishes came from.
The main theme of this popup was food from the Middle East. The students we worked with acted as a client and they told us that they wanted the designs to focus on middle eastern styles. After doing some research, I made the designs look like traditional Middle Eastern tile patterns.
