First Design:
From a personal, and logical perspective, my first design (the old T.V with the testing screen), is the best selection for my storage container. It fits the design brief criteria well. One of the reasons I have chosen this design is that it possesses unique qualities. It is very unlikely that any of my peers would have created a design like mine. This gives the storage container more potential to “stand out” when it is finished, as it will differ from the rest of the designs.
The second reason why I chose this design had to do with time management. As there are extremely straight strips of felt on my design, I have decided to straight stitch them onto the denim. This means that if I run out of time in …show more content…
Firstly, (to oppose the first reason for the first question), this design is a bit boring. Mushrooms are very generic, and this design is a bit too simple. As the older models of T.V. are getting put out of use, they become uncommon (hence why it is a design that is unique. Mushrooms are very common and besides; I do not like mushrooms. I dislike their taste and somewhat their look, so I’d rather go for the T.V.
Secondly, dislike the bland set of colours on this design (red, green, brown and white). I prefer the T.V design more, as it includes a wider range of colours (eg. pink, blue). It just looks better on the eyes for me.
Lastly, I didn’t choose this design because it has more felt pieces on it. The felt makes up most of both of the designs, making it the most time-consuming item to sew onto the storage container. This means the fewer pieces involved, the quicker the storage container will take to finish; the higher chance of finishing on time. The first design has nine pieces of felt, whilst this one has twelve.
There are a couple things that I would change about this design for the future. One thing is that I would change the font that I chose. I feel like the letters don’t flow very well; the need to be more “flowery” to match the theme of the container (plants etc.). They need to become more rounded, and circular. That would work
