T-SHAPE

The collage presented above is a 'T-Shape' which symbolises what I personally take inspiration from whether they are from other design practises such as graphic designs or product and other things that I enjoy (presented through the horizontal top section). The vertical section represents the several designs which have captured my attention within the interior practises and designs associated with it (architecture and furniture).

Each design piece was chosen from a personal view after either studying a particular design aspect such as the Bauhaus movement or if the design fits my personal style.

In reflection, after doing this, it is clear how every practise within the design community have a big influence on each other. This therefore made me realise that my own style towards design has grown through what I have encountered and what I have visually seen.

Here are some examples of my chosen pieces:
