In the studio, Daisy mentioned this competition to somebody else, but I instantly thought of a pattern that I could do, and so I checked the brief and I think that it will work.
The Brief
http://designcompetition.tigerprint.uk.com/page/CONTESTS/contest/BlackandWhitePattern2014
As a stark contrast to last month’s colour competition, we’ve decided to run the popular Black & White pattern competition.
This month we want you to focus on black and white surface pattern. We would like you to design a surface pattern for a male or female recipient that could be used across a range of our everyday products including:
Gift bags, wrapping paper, stationery products or greeting cards.
The brief is open, so get back to basics and think about how the pattern is generated. Explore different techniques and formats, and really experiment with the elements that make up your pattern. Think about how different lines, marks and patterns can be created and applied. Look at fashion and homeware trends for inspiration.
Deliverables
We would like your design in black and white, anything with colour will not be accepted.
Your design could be a repeat pattern or a placement print. You may choose to use your favourite method of working or a combination of mediums such as:
- Hand drawn/mark making
- Digital artwork
- Collage/embellishments i.e. embroidery etc.
- Photographic elements
Be Commercial:
As always, we’d like you to keep the Marks and Spencer customer in mind. The final design must have a commercial feel that will appeal to men & women. Our everyday range is on display now, so why not pop in to your local store or go online and take a look at what we currently do.
