A history of/ Design plan of action


With the deadline approaching, i have now came to the conclusion of what my research is all in aid for and what graphic design products i intend to make. I have kept my self busy by making notes and sketching ideas.

Design Ideas

My idea is to design and make 3 different types of bags
1. A tote bag - everyday use, would appeal to most people, useful bag for carrying shopping/laptops/books.
2. A small drawstring bag - could be used for carrying makeup, stationary, accessories or even food.
3. A smaller drawstring bag - ideal for a phone/ipod pouch/smoking equipment or smaller accessories for example jewellery

Design Process

1. Use an existing tote bag as a template to work from, to get an idea of correct measurements/stitching patterns.
2. Buy fabrics to make bags from - calico for bags and leather for handle, drawstrings and label. (from fashion shop in college)
3. Measure up bags sizes
4. Design for outer bags (at least 3 sets of designs for variety/ design process)
5. Print designs ready for screen printing
6. Screen print designs
7. Assemble bag on sewing machines
8. Photograph all process
9. Letter press logo/label onto leather or print labels

Final Products

1. Photograph final products
2. Blog
3. Presentation

IDEAS!
