Planning and doing...

Last week was crazy because of Friday’s proposal. It was fairly casual but I was glad that I made the models for the day; it showed exactly what I was planning. As it was to scale it was a great way to know the proportions inside the container and how it may look. Now I know I’ve got the smaller create I’m going to do another scale to work out new plans.

I’m starting to move away from the planning now and actually doing which is great. The photo shoot will hopefully happen next week, which will give me time to work on the printing and construction of the paper knits. Sadly bracketsfashion will be moving to a new home, I’ve been working with communication designer Jesse Mallon on updating the blog to laura-wade.com. It will be up by Spring Fashion Week and be a good platform to show my work. I really think a professional web presence is an important frame for your work. I judge a designer/company/blogger by the design of their blog so for me this is something that is a must. As my studio is based on the communication of our work I want to set up systems for people to view/experience my work. The combination of the exhibition, flyer and blog is critical to that original plan I proposed way back in the mid semester crit.

Here is an option for the typography for the title of the exhibition. I'm not going to use the same font for the title as I did for my name. Really, they are representing separate concepts. My name represents me as a designer and link represents my concept for the year. The advertising images I developed last week will have the title as the main focus, with 'LAURA WADE' in smaller print.
