This weekend I am going to be at the George R. Brown convention center for Camex which is a college book store trade show. I will be there supporting my line for Nuo and showcasing one of my brand new prints. Since people always ask how I come up with them I'm going to give you a behind the scenes look at my design process.
This is the abstract flower print I did for Nuo it's a best seller right now so my goal in designing the next print was to come up with a new variation of this classic.
First I find my inspiration. This is vintage wallpaper I love the curved lines.
This is one of many designs that came from this inspiration. I liked it but it wasn't quite there yet.
I pulled out the elements that I did like which was the petal like curved lines. I began overlapping and flipping them until it turned into a flower.
Next is deciding colors and how detailed we could be with the flowers.
The final step is making the pattern. We have to decide what size will look the best on all the merchandise which ranges from small net book clutch to a full size suite case.
These are the final products on the satchel and slim laptop brief. This process seems pretty simple but after it was all said and done we spent over a week in development.
Hope y'all enjoy the two new prints they will be in stores soon!
