Client Project: Further initial ideas

Texture, abstract geometrical shapes/patterns

I'm looking at alternative ideas to the modern layout I've come up with for Owen Baxter, Sonic Machines. My lecturer said it looks too simplistic.

A good source of inspiration was Origami Biro, their use of textures create a good atmospheric look and appeal. An idea would be to incorporate some sort of textural quality to the logo to make it more interesting but keeping it looking exactly the way it is. At the moment the colour is just plain black.If there was an installation for Biro, there would be different materials you could feel and touch. Biro’s image are very earthy and natural looking.

Some other great examples of texture and pattern are: Sourced from: [image]

Also this artists Gemma Anderson use of texture is very interesting:

Antique, victorian and steampunk instruments are very nice and fits into the theme:

I think abstract geometric shapes are a good idea, like star constellations. The texture and feel of them look very interesting, especially when put on a grainy brown paper surface texture or a painted texture. Notably, the font on the last image looks very victorian, analogue like!

 Geometric shapes might work for the navigation, this reminds me of Pink Floyd's work with the Triangles on their album cover. The Triangle kind of represents the metronome that Owen used for one of his pieces.
