Geometric Design

The style in which I will create my visuals will be geometric shapes and gradients produced in Illustrator. But im looking for ideas when it comes to approaching different textures, patterns and effects. I found a designer called Justin M. Maller whose recent work utilises geometric shapes to create people and objects. Uses abstract shapes and colour to create definitave objects.


This piece was created for album artwork, thats why its rather abstract but the detail is in the depth and colours. You can see which elements are overlapping, which are behind and which are on top.


These pieces are created in a similiar style but are less abstract as they are based on animals. The geometry adds a nice texture to the pieces, and often contrast within themselves. They feature sharp and direct shapes whilst the colours are vibrant and energetic, they seem more playful. I really like the use of negative space in the zebra piece as it strangely ties it all together. The overlapping shapes also give the sense of anotomical drawings where you can see all the muscles and tendants, has a strange organic aesthetic.


 

These poster designs are previous works I have done that utilises geometric design. The first one was produced in Photoshop which is why there are some inaccuracies and mistakes. The next two were produced in Illustrator which allowed for more precision when interlocking and overlapping shapes. These are the sort of pattern and textures I aim to produce for my celestial bodies.
