Line Development Process for
Mara Hoffman
This project is a women's wear collection I created for Mara Hoffman to showcase my understanding of Adobe Photoshop CC & Illustrator CC, and my ability to create unique patterns through these design platforms.
This assignment was process driven, and required a well conceptualized inspiration from start to finish. My inspiration began with the vibrant life of Southern Asian cultures; focalized most on imagery of India. I began with an inspiration board with photographs that I used to derive my color-story, and used to design my pattern icons. Using what I pulled from my inspiration board, I developed pattern swatches for the fabrics that I then applied to my own sketches of Mara Hoffman designs.
