Final Board - 25 Variables.

My final board. This is my final board lay out with my 25 different variables. The top right one is my beginning shape. The first two rows have just basic variable changes which create new and interesting shapes which are still very basic and very much keep the essence of the original form. The third row down begins slightly more complex but still very much staying true to the original. It then develops into a shape that more takes the cross essence from the square, but still seeing the essence of the square as the crosses create symmetry, touching each corner of an invisible square. The fourth row down is now much more complicated with many different variable changing. The lines go in becoming thinner but then go out again, being wider. This creates a very new shape from the original as there are now diagonal lines and little squares.
The fourth row down begins with a much more complicated shape which has added diagonal lines. The shapes then transforms to become further complex and an entire new shape of it's own. There are many overlapping diagonal lines, rectangles and the suggestion of a square. I feel this is a good progress from the beginning and when looking at the board you can recognise the transformation of the form, while still seeing its true essence hidden within each new shape developed.

Overall, I'm very happy with the progress my board shows. I feel that I have created whole new forms from the original while still keeping the original forms essence.

Graphs drawn

This isn't uploaded quite in order but here are some graphs I drew when brainstorming for an idea for my beginning shape.

The shapes I started to create were far too basic and not interesting enough. They were mainly just shapes inside different shapes.


These were my final ideas. I decided to add more lines to them so when changing the shapes there would be more that I could do with them. The original shape I had started using was a triangle but I then decided to use a square instead as I liked the idea of how you could parallel the different lines to create some interesting shapes. The top right corner design is the final one I choose to use for my exhibition board. I'm happy with this one as it's still the idea of starting with a basic form and then changing the variables and constructing it so to create a new form which still contains the essence of this original one.

More process

I have now changed my shape, adding more lines so I can create more interesting shapes from them. I have made the background black to help make the lines stand out.

Practice For Hand In




I have started practising my variations for the project. I have made the line weights smooth and thicker. I have added offsets and am changing the number and then clicking to make new variations. The thing which I am finding most challenging at the moment is creating new shapes that are actually interesting and look good as opposed to just moving the lines around.
