I’ve been lax in posting my final pieces from last semester… I worked with simply 2 or 3 transparent blue bottles and the forms I could create from them. They seem to be the least thought about and the most successful. Isn’t that always the case? Sigh.

Pure Waste Logo Revisions

One of the things I’ve been working on is showing the low print quality and general low quality of the labels in general. I decided to rework my PureWaste logo so that it appears the letters are more tattered and have been torn and pasted up.

Here’s the original:

Here’s the revised version:

Recyle Poster Revisions

I started experimenting with the idea of bottles coming in and tshirts coming out. I’m not sure I’m happy with it. Basically, the bottles create a pattern as they fall into the funnel, and the negative space suggests the outline of a tshirt. I think this still needs work.

Rough Book Designs

DigitalJENN — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 17:14:15 +0000

After a fantastic book making workshop with Pet Starr, I was inspired to get creative and produce an artists book based on my poster and printed designs.

I’m specifically developing a “Flag Book” design, an intricate diecut piece (it will be printed and produced by hand), that will showcase some of the various designs I came up with this past year. I’ve gotten good feedback about the prototype, and also had some additional ideas thrown out:

Produce an e-book, to distribute information and let the consumer decide if they should print it;
Produce a floor sized book, that could be an interactive piece;
Produce a grassroots, mainstream book, to be distributed;
Produce a mockup of a grocery store flier, detailing the issues with bottled water;
Produce a performance piece, with people entering the grocery store to buy things, and returning bottled water.
