Today was all pretty much about research and gathering as many sources and/or materials to really get a final idea on what I want to do for the rest of the course. As previously mentioned I've had a deep interest in pacakaging so I decided to stay on that theme and then see what goes from there.
We had to try to decide upon our artists studies and our definitive theme for the rest of the project. The theme of packaging interests me because its challenging enough to satisfy my interests, whilst also beimng easy enough to easily access. From some of the packaging I've seen in my research, I really like the cool designs and the innovative ideas that come from it, especially some of the ornate chocolate boxes. However I want my products to also be sustainable and eco-friendly, so I've looked at those kinds of packaging as well and found a lot of beauty in their minilism.
I've decided to go into further research on the company Muji because they are all about that minilimist design that I favour and also their environmental friendliness. What I like about them is their design philosophy that is based upon old zen traditions and philosophies. I will definitely take into account these traditions into my own work in the future. Tonight, I will be working on some sketches and attempting some artistic experiments. I will talk about how those go in my next post.
