CAMELIA LONELA PREDA

For my final major project, I wanted to look at architecture as the starting point for my final work. I have developed interests in architectural shapes and forms and have recently begun to be fascinated more by the varying shapes of buildings.

Architecture has played an important part in our changing landscape. Where there were once many traditional buildings, new and modern almost futuristic shapes have begun to appear. Fashion often looks to architectural forms to inspire clothing designs and I felt that this would be an ideal concept to take forward successfully. ​

The main design work came from the photographs I took of the interior of the college as it had a lot of lines and form that I felt could inspire me. These formal elements, such as form, shape, line and colour were investigated through drawings and experimental fashion practical work aimed at the womenswear market. ​
