Mood board and inspiration board
This presentation reflects on the mood board and inspiration board which is the foundation of designing process.
Presented by The students of BA Degree in Jewellery Design & Manufacturing Techniques batch 13.
Moodboards For Interior Design
Mood boards are collages used by designers to convey design concepts and themes to clients. They can include photos, sketches, colors, fabrics, and other materials. Mood boards help designers explore aesthetics like photography style, color palettes, patterns and overall look. They allow designers to present broad concepts to clients and get feedback before fully developing a design in the wrong direction.
Prehistoric Art
The oldest surviving art dates back 30,000-33,000 years ago and includes sculptures made from bone, ivory, stone, and antlers. Many of these sculptures are assumed to be fertility figures. Cave paintings from 15,000 years ago often depict animals pierced with arrows, possibly representing hunting rituals. Megalithic structures from 4,000-6,000 years ago, like Stonehenge and Newgrange, had astronomical alignments and were likely used for spiritual ceremonies. Prehistoric peoples transported huge stones by leveraging them onto wooden sledges pulled by large groups of people.
Principles of design
The document discusses the 9 principles of design: repetition, emphasis, pattern, proportion, movement, balance, variety, and unity. Repetition and pattern create unity within a work of art by repeating elements. Emphasis uses contrast to draw the viewer's eye to a particular area. Proportion ensures all parts of a work relate well. Movement guides the eye along lines and colors. Balance distributes visual weight evenly. Variety engages the viewer with different elements. Unity creates harmony between all parts for completeness.
Types of prints
This document discusses the process of textile printing and self printing. Textile printing involves applying color to fabric in definite patterns or designs. Self printing refers to any design that is printed which has the same shades as the background color. The document lists several steps in the textile printing process but does not describe them.
Ajrak print
The traditional craft of Ajrakh block printing has reached great heights of excellence in Ballotra, Rajasthan, due to the availability of good water needed for the hand printing process. Ajrakh printing involves laboriously block printing both sides of the fabric simultaneously using natural dyes in a resist dyeing technique. This makes the hand-printed fabric from Ballotra very exclusive and expensive. Ajrakh printing is one of the oldest block printing techniques still practiced in parts of Gujarat and Rajasthan in India and Sindh in Pakistan.
Greek Motifs and Patterns
Greek art and pottery featured motifs and patterns inspired by Greek mythology and culture. Vases were a popular medium for paintings depicting Greek myths and legends, with motifs including gods, heroes, animals and plants from Greek stories. Painted vases provide insight into Greek culture and the myths that were an important part of their society.
Commercial Anthropometric
This document is a student project report on commercial anthropometrics submitted to Dezyne E'cole College. It includes an acknowledgment, synopsis, and content list. The report discusses the importance of considering human dimensions and body sizes when designing commercial interior spaces. It provides guidelines for appropriate dimensions and clearances for elements like retail displays, aisles, and seating areas to accommodate people of varying sizes. Diagrams illustrate examples of dimensional requirements for different commercial space types.

Greek costume
Ancient Greek clothing was lightweight and loose due to the hot climate. Men typically wore a tunic called a chiton, while women wore dresses made from large squares of fabric held together with pins. Clothing was made from wool in winter and linen in summer to regulate body temperature. Wealthier citizens could afford colorful tunics, while the poor wore plain ones. Cloaks and robes were worn during cold weather, and most Greeks went barefoot, wearing sandals or boots when needed.

Color Psychology .pdf
Color psychology is the study of how colors impact human behavior. Different colors have different meanings and psychological effects that vary across cultures. Blue represents calmness and trust, green represents health and growth, and purple represents luxury and power. Warm colors like red, pink, and orange convey passion and energy while cool colors like blue and green feel calming. Color can influence the perception of space - light colors make a room feel more spacious while dark colors make it feel smaller and more intimate. Warm colors feel heavier and advance while cool colors feel lighter and recede. Movement in a space can be created through color, texture, lines, and repetition.
Texture
Texture refers to the visual and tactile qualities of a surface or material. Textures can be tactile, involving actual surface variations, or visual, creating the illusion of texture. Texture plays an important role in interior design by adding visual interest, defining shapes and space, creating moods, and providing tactile responses. Both smooth and rough textures are used in design and influence how light interacts with colors and how materials feel. Texture is an essential design element that communicates style and creates contrast while enhancing functionality.
Tanjore painting
Tanjore painting originated in the Chola dynasty in the 11th century AD as seen in temples like the Brihadeeshwara temple. The style flourished further during the rule of the Nayaks in the 17th century who encouraged classical arts. Tanjore paintings are known for their vivid colors, gold foils, and use of semi-precious stones on wooden panels. They depict deities in traditional colors with rounded figures against decorative backgrounds and were used to decorate temples and palaces.
textile design
The document traces the evolution of textiles from prehistoric times to the present day. It discusses how early humans used mammoth skins sewn together for clothing in 26,000 BC. In ancient Egypt in 5500 BC, evidence exists for the production of linen cloth. In China between 500-300 BC, silk production began and was used to create Hanfu tunics. During the Roman period from 27 BC to AD 476, linen weaving techniques improved and typical garments included the peplos robe. During the Middle Ages from 1200-1400 AD, wool became commonly used and weaving techniques advanced.

Deconstruct to Construct 2019: Visual & Media Analysis
We are bombarded and consumed by media every day. How can we make sense of it all?
By learning how to visually decipher content, it can assist us in understanding our world and in creating our own content. Participants will gain an understanding of criteria to analyse media, identify strategies to increase literacy and thinking with students as well as activities to implement.
Fauvism: The Artwork of Matisse and Derain
Fauvism was an early 20th century avant-garde art movement characterized by bold, bright, and pure colors and a simplified use of forms. Key Fauvist artists included Henri Matisse and Andre Derain, who believed color should be used expressively rather than descriptively to depict feelings evoked by subjects. Their paintings from 1905-1908 featured simplified drawings and exaggerated use of color that influenced later German Expressionism.

Reductive Printmaking-A Basic Introduction
Reductive printmaking involves carving away areas of the printing block for each new color layer to create a multi-layered print. The artist begins with a fully inked block and removes material for subsequent prints, building up the image layer by layer and registering each new color precisely. This process is demonstrated using a foam block and ballpoint pen, where blue lines are carved away to create the negative space and additional areas are then removed to print additional yellow and color layers in the composition.
