Final Designs

Final Designs for T-shirts and Bags

As with the designs in my research I've tried to make the typography follow the curves of the drawings. I've also tried to use appropriate fonts for each type of drawing.

The type runs horizontally and vertically in some areas, and I've chosen fonts which mirror the shapes in the illustrations in some way.

The violins have a lot of curves and so the font reflects this

In contrast I've used a very simple simple sans serif font in the guitars, with varying scales but still following the contours. I've also used white out of black to create negative space.

I've used a hand written font in "piano" still involving the typography with the curves of the drawing and as with the others the quotation marks are in negative

I've used a stronger font with this Illustration, as with the Foo Fighters detailed drawing in my Research. This is because there is so much detail the words could easily be lost, you can see through the actual letters within the blocks so as to continue the drawing through the typography. I've also played with scale and followed the contours of the drawing.

The final design is a traced image and I've used a retro font with many curves to reflect the curves of the image. I've manipulated the text in Illustrator to fit the image snuggly. The text runs backwards in some cases and I also turned some letters sideways to fit the space.
