DN1002 Assignment 2 – Part 2 – Iteration

18-10-2016

In this post, I will describe the process of iteration from the initial ideas, towards the final design. The quote featured here is “If we can’t make memories, we can’t heal” from Memento (2001).

In the beginning, I attempted to find a way to visually describe the idea of memories. I first thought of a simple graphic of a brain, which led to the following design:

However, this seemed a little too overt in meaning. I then tried to relay the “memories” concept using neurons instead and I used simple outline drawings of them:

This led to the first version which is slightly closer to the final design, with plasters representing “healing”:

This design however didn’t seem to gel together well, as the plasters looked a little too bold and dominated the design too much. After a consultation, I decided to include a textural form of depiction of “healing”, which turned out like this:

As this seemed a little sparse, I decided to duplicate the human torso and neurons and placed them in a hierarchical arrangement, which led to the final version…..
