Stage 3 project
In this section I will show how I went about choosing how to layout my designs for the final finished ideas section. In each of the images I have shown the different ideas I had for the layout. I will also explain why I chose the final layouts.
The Front of the Shirts/Hoodies
For the front of the shirt, I wanted to achieve a clean look, a logo placement that would make the brand look more professional. As the final logo placement, I have chosen the top left design, as I feel like it is not big and tacky, and naturally I feel that logos to the top right look more appealing than top left
The Back prints
With this design, I tried out a few different placements, duplicating, small and big, and decided that the top left was best. This is because it's a big square design, and has quite a lot of detail within the image, therefore it can be best appreciated when it's big on the back.
This design has no background, therefore it allows it to be joined up against itself, like a mirror. I decided that hiding the edge of the design by duplicating and stitching them back to back. I liked this the most in the top right image.
This design is another that is defined by a frame. This time it's a rectangle, and I tried re arranging it in different formations, but I found that to me, it looked best as a big print on the back, rather than overlapping or being duplicated
With this one I intended to make it look as sharp as possible, and I wasn't sure if it would look better as just one big print, or multiple on the shirt. In the end I have decided that a singular print looks best and shows off the design best.
This design was originally intended to be one by itself, but either way I wanted to experiment with how it would look duplicated/ overlapping. I decided that leaving it as its one designs was the best idea (top left).
This design was a really quick sketch that I have decided to develop further. I tried it out in different orientations and overlapping, and decided that I like it both when it by itself and when it's overlapping (two top images)
This design went through a lot of modifying within itself, and I decided to play around with the idea of duplicating it and assorting it. Similar to the previous design, I decided that I liked the overlapping method that's seen in the bottom left, as well as spacing it out in two opposing corners (bottom right).
