Assignment 7 : Designing a 2D repeat pattern

-
Assignment 7 was different from the previous ones. This time we were asked to organize a square, a quarter circle and a triangle withing another square 7 x 7 cm. We were free to chose the sizes of the elements withing the square, and we should  overlap them. On our composition we had to apply rules of rotation, reflection, mirror symmetry or glide reflection.


This is the 7 x 7 cm square unit I created, where the quarter circle, triangle and square are easily seen,  placed to give a function to the white background as well , and the overlapping part of the square with the other two shapes is done with grey.

We experienced the "pair and share" assignment once more. This time we had to take our friend's composition of the square, create firstly six different combinations with it and then pick one of them to create a pattern. 
I exchanged units with Kevin Hasa. After seeing my friend's shape I created the 6 combinations with four pieces each, one of which would be chosen for the pattern. 



From the six combinations I made I chose the second one on the photo below because to me it was the most suitable for the pattern, it could be continuous and create something beautiful and interesting.

H ow designers think ? This is a question that brings a boost to our brain and makes us reflect : Firstly, what is design ? And later on, how do we think it terms of it ? Even nowadays we still don't have a specific answer since it gets different meanings by particular groups of people. In our day to day life we may hear sayings like Design is everything ! Design is interdisciplinary ! Design is a process ! As a matter of fact they all contain a true meaning. Design is everything, it is found in different disciplines, as a high professional or everyday activity, but always regarded as a process and not only an end product. Design has always been connected with our contemporary intellectual endeavour including art, science and philosophy. The designers of today can no longer be trained to follow a set of procedures, since the world rate changes day after day. But they are trained to always try creating something that could bring a difference, by not paying much attention only to...

Assignment 2 : Production of Elements for Design

Assignment 2 : Production of Elements for Design Understanding to look at abstract form🌿 Our second assignment consisted on searching for and selecting 6 samples of leaves in the Campus and translating them onto sheets of white drawing paper by projection. Than 6 different projections would be chosen to work on for a geometric abstraction of each. This assignment was interesting as well since it gave us the opportunity to work with a piece from nature itself, seeing how the prints were made, comparing the similarities and differences between them and discovering possible relations. Drawing of 6 prints of the leaves.
