What will my design Context publication look like?
TITLE. Due to the topic of my dissertation and surrounded research I have done I have come to realise the importance of what a graphic designer sees as there inspiration. Ideas don't just come from no where, they are sourced from everything we see, hear, taste, touch and experience. I want this book to really explore every way a designer can be inspired so that they can reach their design potential when tackling a brief. The fact is this book can't contain EVERYTHING to inspire everyone but will explore ways that people may not of considered when tackling a brief.
Considering this I came up with some titles. 'Inspired', 'Inspired by...', 'LOOK AT THIS', 'everywhere'... More to consider.
CHAPTERS. After understanding that there can be a broad range of sections within the book I have come to a decision as to what those could be. Print - processes, colours, format, old/new ways, whats coming back. Ethics - design studios, subjects, limitations, national/international. Not Graphics - What inspires, photographs, conversations, theories. Craft - being proactive, making, colour, tools.
Probably not in that order and there will no doubt be more to come be gets me thinking about what I want to look into.
WAYS TO RESEARCH. Visiting exhibitions, towns, cities, eg. Lakedistrict. Talking to professionals - studios, freelances. Visiting charity based design teams - importance of guidelines/limitations of them.
