Devolopment of Idea: Pencils Case

    At this stage, I've experimented with different designs for pencil cases, using a previously created pattern inspired by the American robin, and explored various colour variants to enhance its visual appeal. Considering canvas cotton as the material for the pencil case not only prioritizes environmental friendliness but also ensures coherence with my other designs such as tote bags and aprons.

    The first design assumes pens will be inserted from the top, while also offering the option of closure with a lock shaped like a white oak leaf. The light grey, orange, and green colours work well together, creating a balanced and lively look. The grey acts as a calm background, letting the orange and green stand out with their bright and energetic feel.

    In the second project, objects like pencils are stored in compartments made just for them. The colour scheme is like the first design, with light grey and orange, and now black is added in too, giving it a sharper contrast. The design involves folding the project in half and securing it with a string.

    The last project takes inspiration from an envelope's design. It showcases a warm colour palette including yellow, orange, and red, which are neighbouring shades on the colour wheel, known as analogous colours. To secure it, an elastic band and button closure are incorporated. The pattern features motifs of the American Robin and a leaf reminiscent of the White Oak tree.
