Philosophy

This is the concept design phase where the designer’s creative side shows the concrete journey to executing the project.
Juxtaposed main shapes, round and angled, curves and straight lines, and colours that blend into each other make up freehand backgrounds, like developing an idea that gradually becomes more defined in the search for details. I wanted to demonstrate the graphic and conceptual approach of research into three-dimensionality, upon which my designs are shaped.
