get inspired.

Today is a rainy, cold day and I don't feel like doing anything. In my 3D class we were talking about outfits that inspire room design, so I thought I'd share...

Room 2





Image above from Birds of Ohio sneak peek. Products, clockwise from top left: Embellished t-shirt from Anthropologie, Luxe Scarf from Ann Taylor, Rings from Made Her Think, Sweater vest from J.Crew, Kira Bag from Coach, Ankle Zip Jeans from J Brand, Leather Bracelets from Delia’s, and Colored flats from Jil Sander (the price is quite steep on these but Sam Edelman makes a very comparable pair)




I think these examples can play into graphic design because we, as designers, all use the same ideas when either creating a page, flyer, room, etc. Colors need to be thought about and used wisely, patterns are crucial to cohesiveness, and the layout is most important. In a room, layout involves where you want a chair to be, or what you wants your guests looking at when they are sitting that chair. In graphic design and art, layout involves where you want certain elements, whether they fit physically and aestetically and where you want the viewers eyes to go.
