2nd Window Final

Since the meeting last week, I have been working on the designs for the second window. I sent a few options for Micheal Price to look at, and we both agreed that this design will be the best one to use. The manager has forwarded the design to the printers so it should be up shortly.










These are some other ideas I presented.

Unruly's original window

This is the original window that I designed for them last March, I will be developing this design on the window next door before starting work on the wall and floor inside.

Meeting summary

Following my meeting at Unruly Studio on Tuesday, I have further details on the development of my project.
Firstly, the business has just extended into the studio next door, so they have two large scale windows for my designs to be applied onto. I designed their original window last year in March, and they wish to continue that design onto the window next door as they feel that that image has become iconic for their studio.
All together the two windows measure up to be 17.5 meters long and 3.2 meters tall.
I have marked the pink selected area in the image below to show the area I will be designing on to.



















Secondly, the in-store piece of graphics will be applied on the wall marked in pink in the images below.






A section of this wall is curved, and is 18.5 meters long and 4 meters high. The fashion image poster that is on the curved wall is being replaced by a new model head shot, and the new image will be my starting base for the graphics and illustration as the drawing will all develop out of the photo, similar to some of my work further down the blog.
Unruly studio is organizing a shoot especially for this image in which I will be working closely with them and will be involved with casting the actual model and the styling at the shoot.

And finally we also discussed developing the designs onto the floor of the studio as well, which was not part of the original plan but gives me something to think about.

Important meeting tomorrow

I have spoken to Micheal Price, one of the owners of Unruly Studio and we have arranged a meeting for tomorrow morning to discuss the window design because they are hoping to put it up quiet soon. While I’m there I will take the exact measurements of the wall that I will be designing onto so that I can start creating a rough plan of how it will look.
Hopefully I will have some more exciting news after the meeting tomorrow.

Research

I have been out and about collecting photos of current in-store graphics and window designs around central London, its given me a better idea of what kind of graphics and images work in bigger spaces.

Style Examples.

These are some examples of my fashion illustratrations I presented to the studio managers while discussing the brief. They particulary liked this kind of style for the studio's brand image, and wish to develop somthing similar for their in-store graphics.

The Brief

I have decided to orientate my final project towards the field I hope to work in, namely fashion graphics, window and in-store graphics. With this in mind, I approached the managers of Unruly, a contemporary fashion studio based in Portobello.
My proposed outcome takes the form of a illustrative wall and window that will be done in situ.
As well as this mural, I plan to document the in-store process by filming the development of the piece.

• Background Company Info: Unruly Studio offers a network of stylists, make-up artists and hair experts to the TV, media and fashion industries as well as regular clients. They work very closely with Select Model Management and have a contract with FM Model Agency.

• They have a range of celebrity clients from Lily Allen and Sophie Anderton to the winner of “How do you solve a problem like Maria” Connie Fisher. They have also been on Channel 4’s show “10 Years Younger”.

• Brief: In-store illustrative graphic designs for the studio, to go onto an approximately 10 meter long wall and 15 meter long window. The final design will be a lasting piece and will be displayed for the next 2-3 years.

• Some sections of the final designs will be printed and installed onto the wall and window, while other sections will be done in situ by hand inside the actual studio
