Design: Intelligent; Winter

I have chosen heavyweight canvas is hardwearing and suitable
for the chair.
This is very different to
my usual choice of fabric and has allowed me to use new techniques. The canvas reminds me of a painting canvas. I
combined digital print with embroidery, this was a new experience for me. In the
past I have been planning to combine
both areas together, but due to time management, I never did.
I have improved my capacity to work alongside
simultaneous projects and this has benefited this piece. I have stepped out of
my comfort zone in terms of actualising my designs outside of the university
setting.
This is a step towards showing
my work as a design to go onto furniture.

Design: Personal; Spring

Cherry blossom are a seasonal plant, what I tried to do was
to make it unseasonal, also with my one off design, I thought it suits the
design better to put it on to a stool instead of a chair.
I have chosen canvas fabric as my material chose. For the
fabric, weight is heavier to suits the furniture and hard wearing need.
I have previously struggled with composition of the
proportions within my stitch work. This has challenged my wider understanding
of the types of stiches. I am able to
stitch on top of the digital print, which has helped me combine methods to fit
the subject matter, but also to look professional quality.
Within this project I hoped that I could collaborate with
designers, to enable me to pursue more furniture designs, however this is
something that I have managed to successfully achieve within my placement.
My motivation was to make a piece that was suitable for a
number of occasions. I did not find any
aspect of this project boring as at each stage there were new challenges to
face which helped me keep motivated to finish the project to a professional
standard.

Deign: Playful; Autumn

The oriental theme motivated the choices I made with this
project, I found I am more detailed with my samples.
I learnt better time management, for I have fulfilled my
development through practice and my idea of my design potential I used Photoshop
to show.
I believe this project blends art with commercialism in a
positive way. This project has informed my career ambition and direction. I am hoping to develop networks within
interior design. This reflects my
potential as a designer using embroidery.
This skill set will make me very capable within interior design spheres. My project management skills will also be
beneficial in this career as timeframes are tight.
