Shop window dispaly capturing the essence of an evening


my sketch drawing of the new shop logo for the signage. The two companies merging are 'Schuh' and 'Red or Dead' and I thought the 3 circles symbolises the 2 companies merging together


                          Finished logo created on Photoshop using my initial sketches as reference

                COMEDY CLUB PROJECT


Memory Box
I added some sketches of my designs and some inspirational comedians from my childhood into a box.  I built this from a sheet of acrylic. I had to cut it into 30cm square pieces and glue them together, I then added printout images on acetate sheets and stuck them to the inside.  These could be used as a light box.





Images of the interior ideas for Comedy Club.



I loved drawing this harlequin, using different B sketch pencils





I had a project to design a new Comedy Club within an exsisting theatre space. I researched various comedy clubs and I looked into what comedy meant to me and what made me laugh.  I was brought up with comedy being very prominent in my household. My dad loved Laurel and Hardy and Steptoe and son, Abbott and Castello.

I decided that this would be my inspiration and I looked into Charlie Chaplin era. It was Chaplin that paved the way for the slapstick comedy outburst. He was a descendant from the Harlequin period and this gave me the idea for interior space design.



This is the sculpture I designed using Vectorworks. It is designed to hang suspended in the extended entrance.
