Implementation: Final outcomes


I made this pattern design on Photoshop

The reason I used Orange was because I want to give a feeling of comfort and warmth because I want to communicate that routines are good thing.

However, the orange seemed to stand out too much, so I chose a less saturated color. I went for a muted orange-brown, I feel this works better because it looks more neutral.


These are the final designs, this is just 1 tile. They could repeat indefinitely. I’ve alternated the colors to make it look more interesting. The hand cut imperfection to these shapes are good in a way because it shows that not every toast is same. If I had more time, I would have carried this idea further. “Same but different”



I felt the patterns I made were good but I was thinking back to when I created the bird within a bird cutout. I thought I could incorporate this idea into these patterns. Within the toast, there are patterns of toasts. And within the cup of tea, there are more cups of tea and vice versa.

The final output would be posters standing alongside each other. They work as a series because of the coherent color scheme that unifies them together. The 3 objects suggest routine because these are objects associated with waking up and eating breakfast or tea.
