Wallpaper 2 development

I decided it was time to start experimenting with the shapes and putting them into patterns, especially as I had established a theme early on in the design process. Before I jumped straight into pattern development I felt it would benefit my work by looking at traditional paisley patterns to help with the fluidity of theme and design. I think this has really helped my experimental process as I feel I have immediately come up with successful designs. I think it helps that this theme is so strong and the paisley shape weaves in and out of each other really well. This first design I looked at using different sizes, which works really well it allows for the detail in the shapes to become more intricate with the different sizing of the shapes.


The second design, is very similar to the first but I have used only one size throughout the design. In some ways I feel this has a more professional quality to it and is more typical of a wallpaper design, however I do need to remember that these are only extremely small examples of what the real life designs look like. Taking this into consideration the first design would probably prove far more interesting across a large wall space.
