Recycling Sketches
Using recycled materials to design and make a neck piece based on the theme of repetition. Using inspiration from the icebreaker paper project and translating this into recycled cardboard. Looking at simple repeated shapes like cubes and cylinders to create a neck piece.
Sketches of possible neck pieces using the cardboard cylinder idea.
I’m looking at Elizabethan ruffs and Egyptian collar necklaces for inspiration for the shape of the design and how it will sit on the wearer.

Great to see you working through design options in your sketchbook. Think about going even further in exploring potentials for a design. Your sketchbook can be your space to really explore the boundaries of ideas. Perhaps using a variety of materials when designing could bring a lively energy to the work and perhaps influence the design process itself. Experiment with working with various media and techniques eg. collage/photography/mono printing when you are designing. Make your sketchbook a lively visual space!
