22nd April - 28th April

As the show is getting closer now , this week has involved measuring the material i need for my chairs , measuring my lamp and finally working what materials i'm using ad how much of each material i need to digitally print on. The final designs have been tweaked and corrected , and are waiting to be confirmed to be printed.
So far for the show i am producing 3 wallpapers for each collection , 5 pieces of 60x60cm fabric , 2 upholstered chairs and a lamp that hangs from the ceiling. All the fabric pieces are being printed on linen , hopefully Tudor White Linen and Oyster Linen .

Easter Break

Over easter, i have been creating compositions that could be use for wallpapers and fabrics for upholstering. i have place images of furniture, utensils and electronical items from the 1950's and the 1960's era to create these designs fo the collection called Vintage Pop Art.
The other collection is Paolozzi Inspired and that is using some of my designs sheets to create wallpaper and small alternative designs for wallpaper.
During the easter holidays whilst researching simular designs and layouts to what i am designing i have found that the design company Mini Moderns have created a chair wallpaper , cushions and Kitchen Utensils that has some simular motifs and layout as mine. By finding this it has boosted me to believe tha if Mini Modern can create this collection and it be successful so can mine.
