My Peg Dolls

The purpose for these Peg Dolls was to promote Essex University, South Essex College and the graduating fashion design students at London Fashion Week 2008. Like the previous post of work themed Fairy Tales this years theme was 3D fun.
















These peg dolls were used across all promotional material, tickets, posters and the brochures. For now enjoy the photos of my fun and quirky characters and I will upload the printed publications later on.

This is my full page article about me, my work and inspirations.

This newspaper was published in London, Turkey, Cyprus and America.

I was also featured in other newspapers as well.

Newspaper Articles about my designs at London Graduate Fashion Week

My work which I posted previously gained media interest at my exhibition in Essex. Above in the top right hand corner is me featured with my work on the front page of the turkish newspaper Haber. I am mixed raced and part that mix is Turkish Cypriot which is why I gained interest form the Turkish media.

Brochure Illustration

These is are the 4 illustrations which was used within the brochure.

All the illustrations are a combination of collage, photography and illustration.

Brochure Front Cover

This my design of the front cover for the A6 brochure, used at London Graduate Fashion Week.

The purpose of the brochure was to promote Essex University, South East College and the graduating students.

This is the second brochure I have designed for the university and college.

Watch this space for the other 2 designs and I have now been asked to design two more which will be in progress at the end of May 2010.

Back of the fashion show ticket

This is the back of the fashion show ticket, which is also a combination of illustration and photography. The original photo was an image of butterflies taken in a butterfly house.

Illustration work used to promote graduating students work at London Graduate Fashion Week 2009

These illustrations are based on the theme fairy tales, which is a concept I came up with as the illustrations I produced were being used to promote graduating students - hopes, dreams, reaching their 'fashion fairy' tale.

The brief required me to design tickets for the fashion show, poster promoting the fashion show and a brochure which would contain all the graduating students profiles and images of their work.

This is the front of the fashion show ticket, the image is a combination of my illustration and photography.

The photo, which is a birds eye view of a stair well was taken in St.Hilarion Castle which is in North Cyprus. The castle was an inspiration to Walt Disney and inspired the creators to design the castle which was in Snow White and the seven dwarfs.

The black 'picture' logo

The logo font or background colour will either be used in black or white depending on the placement of the logo.

The 'picture' logo

This is the other version of the logo which will be used on printed publications which independent ideas has designed and/or is sponsoring.

The name of the company was inspired by my character. I asked various friends and work colleagues which word best described me as a person and this is the word that continuously came up.

The logo

This is the main logo that will be used to represent the company.

The colours purple, blue, pink and yellow represent services that
independent ideas provides, which are advertising, web design, fashion and events organisation.
