Studio brief 01 - Leeds public spaces - Final print outcome

Final design

Final type choice

Production

Lino printing is quite a time-consuming production method. There is a lot of detail and care that is taken into the design to achieve the best result. The original design of the print (made digitally) had to be thoroughly considered in terms of the detail which would be needed.

The tools used don't allow many intricacy at a small scale, the outcome is dependent on the amount of consideration for the detail created and its effectiveness. 

Final decisions for the final outcome.

Printing 

Matching the previously as closely as possible, and the considered colours found from research.

Bottom layer printed first

Outline layer on top

This pale colour was used to highlight the darker colour which will go on top and add depth to the design and the objects.

Through development, there has been an identification of different appropriate colour schemes the final chosen colour scheme was developed through planning as well as trial and error within the actual printing process. 

This was the final colour scheme chosen. It was used in order to express the celebratory nature which it will be used in.


Printing errors

The lettering wasn't very successful with these prints. the application of the 'ink' wasn't enough to show up on the print. 

These colours were considered relating to the original colours of the bazaar, however when appreciating the colours to the actual design they didn't convey and fit the tone of the message, as well as be aesthetically successful. This design wasn't received very well when asking others. 

This design was one of the more successful ones, however, there was an error within the lettering, while printing there is the opportunity for slight movements to effect the accuracy of the lettering. 

                                                                                        

Final printing

The colour was chosen (seen below)  inspired by all the previous decisions and was informed by trial and error of what worked the best visually. 

Although this work is not as refined as the previous screenprint outcome. The decision to use this was informed by different factors in the production of the print as well as the more thorough consideration in creating a more experimental and expressive outcome in comparison to others.
