夢想飛行 - tailor-made boxed frame


夢想飛行 - tailor-made boxed frame
很開心完成了這個作品。 客人希望以飛機為題材、藍色為主調...
由於六月份一直忙於做不同類型的設計訂單,雖然偶爾也想起這個相架設計,不過始終還沒有想到很好的構思。 可能爸爸哥哥也是從事飛機的有關工作,所以心中的情義結,一直令我想像要做得很好才是吧!

就在一天回家的路上,想起了 '回家' 的感覺。 所以決定用香港機場為中心,飛往世界各地的地圖為背景,設計了這個相架。 為增加相架的 '收藏價值' (kakakaka!!!) 還情商借了哥哥的飛行 logbook 的一頁為背景的一部分。
祝願她的男朋友能夠成功實踐,開始他的夢想飛行吧!

Red Wine on Wedding Guest Book Cover

Red Wine on Wedding Guest Book Cover
First time working on NON-WHITE wedding guest books.
I had never met this client before she called me one day, asking about the details of ordering a wedding guest book. She did lay down some requirements, especially on the colors and the red wine logo cos all these have special meanings to her and her fiance.
Anyhow, she is a very kind lady and has been expressing her trust to my work right from the beginning over the phone. Honestly, I feel so glad about her turst to me... yet, I started to feel the pressure as at that time, I did not really know how a red wine logo could be well incorporated into a wedding guest book...
Not until sometime later, I thought I could make use of 'silhouette' in the design !!! I like 'silhouette'. It makes your work look artistic and adds a vintage touch too.

I thought I would do well for the one for their banquet as I would be using the same 'red wine' color for its cover... seem quite matching, right! But later on, when I was really working on the two guest books, I found I fall in love with the one in tiffany blue color! With the small white and creamy paper flowers around, the 'red wine' color can be tuned down a bit but still remains the focus of the guest book.

The book box was tailor-made to hold the two guest books inside. Those who have attended our book binding workshop in June would know the way to make the same book box... just that this time, it becomes a huge book box compared to the one we did in the workshop!
Indeed, it is no easy to make such book box with the scrapbook papers only in 12"x12". I must find ways to hide the seams nicely.
The whole project is now done... and she loves them. I am relieved that I did not let her down... ^^!

Wedding x Bali

Wedding x Bali

這陣子太忙吧... 忙的是為完成手上一些六月至七月有關結婚的專屬設計。
設計的概念,有時可能瞬間出現... 有時候可能想來想去也想不到很棒的設計。 就是這樣一直在心中思索...直到真的找對感覺,把實物完成,並能有幸親身感受到委託人的讚賞,這時才真的放下心頭大石... 接著便可慢慢享受這份按捺著的興奮和滿足感,再接再厲去開始新的工作。 設計本來就是這樣吧.. 沒有一定的模式... 沒有一定的程序... 只有隨心而行..並將這種想法感染身邊的人...當然包括你的委託人啦!
今次的project需要為一對新人設計結婚請帖。 她很喜歡一些我們稱為flourishes 的圖案...更希望用圖中shocking pink的顏色.... 其他的就是我的工作了。
聽了這些要求... 我立刻想到了shocking pink和黑色的配合。 不過這是很大膽的想法...因為在中國人的社會裏,黑色並不是結婚請帖可用的顏色。 慶幸的是...完來她和家人也挺西化, 他們不介意..也覺得沒什麼問題...我實在歡喜極了! 我覺得shocking pink和黑色是很cool, 很trendy的配合...不過一直找不到合適設計場合..今次真的很感謝她..讓我一嘗心願!
話雖如此... 這設計也會以shocking pink為主色。 咭上的不同部份都以膠帶連繫著..這樣一來便可避免純黑色的部份單獨地呈現出來。Project 完成了... 也已交到客人手中...她和陪她來取咭的朋友也很喜歡這個設計組合...我也很滿足她給了我一個突破的機會呢...在回味這份的興奮的同時...我也已開始了另一設計project ..就是以紅酒為題的兩本 (ceremony + banquet) wedding guest books和為好好保存它們的一個盒子。
