Assignment #2: Accessory for a place

Accessory for a place: Create a fashion accessory made out of paper inspired by a place

Part I.

Choose a place that is particularly interesting to you. It can be any place from your bedroom, a childhood home, a place you once visited while traveling, your school, a park, deli, bus, etc.. Spend some time journaling and drawing this place in your sketchbook. What are the details that you associate with this place? Be as specific as possible!

Part II.
Create several concept sketches exploring ways that you can create a wearable accessory made of paper that is inspired by this place. What will it be? Previous students have created: scarves, glasses, hats, jewelry, belts, bags, shoes, etc.. It’s wide open! Also, what characteristics of the place will you refer to in your design?  [For ex. The Union Sq. Subway station is loud – perhaps you could design a hooded scarf that shields the wearer from the noise from passing trains]. Come to class next week with 3 of your best concept sketches completed in color media on 14 x 17 drawing paper.
