Creative Design: Graduate
Author: Jessica L. Ridgway (Northern Illinois University)
The purpose of this piece was to explore how predetermined conceptual themes influenced the creative design process and examined how 2D design informed 3D design. Handcrafted Ediciones Vigia books were used as inspiration for construction techniques used and for developing of conceptual themes (i.e. conceal and reveal, use of text, and sound). Several Ediciones Vigia books were careful examined and construction techniques, themes, and color stories were all documented.
