Chihuly – Kew Gardens 2019

Chihuly’s soft cylinder colours were amazing to see in real life – the textures from layered glass looked really effective and three dimensional.
I also found the video of them being made here:

The separate strands of glass are placed on tables and the molten glass is rolled onto them.

Chihuly inspired colour palettes.

From using photographs of the succulent I took on holiday last year at St. Michaels Mount – Falmouth.
This happened by accident as I was layering the colours using my brushes in Procreate and then I removed the image, leaving behind a pattern.
Using my succulent garden as colour reference, I created a palette theme for my PDF which has been inspired by nature and gardening, a pastime of mine.
Final four colours inspired by the palette from my succulents above.
I am using a circular theme throughout my PDF as I this represented my journey, and my approach as a designer. Me learning and evolving, is continuous. It’s a loop where I’m applying my skills to new projects and then those new projects lead to more skill developments. Circles are also organic, a natural formation.
I also love that circles are quite evident throughout my PDF in projects weekly. I have decided to do the overall theme as circular with colour circles as backgrounds, and the addition of earthy, organic colours enhances the natural theme of my interests; sustainability and environmentally conscious design.
