Design Inspiration (post#6)

After brainstorming, the next thing that I need to do is, thinking how am I going to put the images of London Eye, Big Ben etc. together because obviously these are going to be in different shapes and sizes. But before I could do that, I've got to think the kind of visual style that I'm going to use for my mural. Inorder to have inspiration, I've looked through examples of works of different artists and illustrators.

 







 

If I am being honest, among those illustrations, only one appeals to me the most.

I like the idea of having a mixture of different visual style into one piece of work. To me that looks very exciting rather than having all those images vectorized, or having my illustration in full photography, drawing etc.

I quite like the idea of how the type has been put accross the page. This gives me an idea of having sort of typography that is representative of London (i.e. "The Oxford Street", "The Strand" etc).I also like the way that the statue of Jesus has been illustrated at an interesting angle. This to me is logical, because it is this statue is very massive, considered as one of the largest Art Deco statue in the world.

However, unlike the above illustration my mural will consists of the vibrant colours as I want my mural to appeal to 18 to 24  and by doing that will make my mural modernistic, youthful and and exciting.
