Creating My Yellow, Coral, and Gray Floral Designs

Creating My Yellow, Coral, and Gray Floral Pattern

My Yellow, Gray, & Floral designs started as an exercise in Module 2 from Make it in Design. The brief was to create elegant coordinated patterns for a stationery collection.

Sketch of stylized flower

I decided to use this stylized flower I had sketched in my art journal as the basis for the designs.

Color palette and motifs for my yellow, coral, and gray floral pattern

For the color palette, I started with one of my favorite color combinations: yellow and gray, and then added the coral. I hand-drew the flowers, scanned them, and traced them in Adobe Illustrator. I use the rectangle tool to create the diamond shapes.

I added color to the floral motifs and used them and the diamonds in different combinations on each piece of the collection.

The yellow, coral, and gray floral pattern

For my Redbubble shop, I changed the name of the collection to Yellow, Coral, and Gray Floral Designs. I tweaked the design from the letterhead to fit the products better. I will be adding the rest of the stationery designs to the shop in the future.

The design is available on wall art, phone cases, home decor, stickers, and magnets.

Creating My Tropical Birds Pattern

Creating my Tropical Birds Pattern

I created my Tropical Birds pattern for Make it in Design’s Winter School 2021 Exotic Canopy brief. The brief asked for a moody, warm, and elegant design inspired by the tropics.

Tropical Birds mood board

I decided to use tropical birds and ferns in my design and created this mood board.

Tropical Birds color palette and motifs

I created the color palette from my mood board photos and drew the bird, fern, and leaf motifs by hand. I then scanned them into Adobe Illustrator and traced them to create vector shapes.

Tropical Birds pattern

I created this final pattern for Winter School 2021, but decided I did not like the color palette.

Tropical Birds pattern with revised color palette

I tweaked the color palette and think that this version is more “me”.

Tropical Birds Products

I added the revised pattern to my Redbubble shop and added it to all sorts of products.
