Guiding Star




For my collections project, I focused on childhood toys and aimed to use toys that were recognisable to most people. I then abstracted my drawings so that the objects would become more fun. I turned my drawings into patterns using a graphic influence and focused on creating a collection of wallpaper that would give a multi-sensory experience for the viewer. To create this interactive element I created my patterns by manipulating the paper by stitching by hand using different forms of stitch and layering. I kept the colours soft so that my designs felt homely but also the pop of colour to bring a playful element to my papers to suit my designs.
​
This collection was aimed for a high-end market as I produced the designs by hand to create the textures to meet my ideas of a multi-sensory experience.
