ILLUSTRAROR PRACTICING

"Illustrator" is a software that I had never used. By practicing drawing those patterns, I found that use this sofware is really fun!

PAPPER CUTTING

At first, I think about many ideas. But finally I choose the glasses box. Because when we buy glasses, we can also get a glasses box from the store. But the boxes there are always ugly. So I think of making a glasses box by the papper cutting pattern, it might be beauty.

Those are the patterns that I want to use. They are birds that symbolize lucky and the coming of spring. The two patterns on the left eill be using on the glasses, and the right pattern will be cut on my box.

THE FIRST PROJECT

The first project of basic design this semester is to choose a pattern of traditional papper cutting, turn it from 2D to 3D and make a new product. At the first step, I had some research from websites and found some products that interested me.
