Final Designs - Design Process - OUGD405

My previous blog post shown how I manipulated images I had captured of local buildings to create a kaleidoscope effect.

This post will describe how I have created my final designs presented in the correct manor, for example size and text added via Illustrator.

All of the designs have been made to support local shops within Leeds as they are all symbolistic buildings from the heart of the city.

6x4 - The Holborn Tower (Actual Size)

By adding the text in Illustrator I was able to keep a consistency in the text and make it larger for the other 2 posers without any pixel distortion.

7x5 - The Broadcasting Tower (Actual Size)

My font of choice was Baskerville. This is because I think it doesn't take your attention too much away from the main image and it's a timeless classic, kind of how a building should look.

8x6 - Opal 3 (Actual Size)

Overall I am pleased with the outcomes I have produced, I think they represent my research in a good light. The concept of supporting local shops was also a bonus as it is a strong USP for the consumer in this day and age.
