Vaughan Oliver: Comfortable In The Uncomfortable
Craft, Emulate, Influenced
Print, Vinyl
Vaughan Oliver: Comfortable In The Uncomfortable was a print piece made to look like a vinyl album. The goal of this project was to make a piece that was influenced by the work of another famous designer, while still having my own personal aesthetic, emulating my chosen designer’s style.
To design this project, I first started by conducting research on my chosen designer. This was to learn more about their life, what inspired them to have a career in design, and the things that gave them their unique aesthetic. I first started by deciding on a color palette which was based on colors he used often. Then, I found photographs of him and took them into Photoshop to give a similarly heavily edited style. After that, I used the photos to design a vinyl jacket for a fake record based on his life and crafted it together by hand.
