YEARBOOK - cover development

Collectively as a Textiles Team, we made the decision to scrap the brief that we had initially compiled for the student's to complete. It was agreed that it was unlikely that any of the students would actually have any time to complete the brief, and that we probably wouldn't receive any responses. Despite this, we still decided to go ahead with the wrap around concept, using an existing print to create a focal point for the publication, representing the course as a whole. We therefore made the decision to pick the print ourselves based on personal preference, and what we felt would be the most eye catching, creating interaction with the product.

Below we have started to experiment with some possible layouts, using the 11/14 mentioned in our initial pitch to represent the students time on the course. We picked some patterns that stood out to us from the ones that were sent in, to see what kind of impact they would make. 





One of the designs sent in to us by Phoebe Baskett really stood out to us as an inspiring and contemporary print that reflected the course in terms of their skill, ability and knowledge of processes. We therefore decided to contact Phoebe to see whether or not she could send us in any more designs, so that we could see some variation.
