DEBAUCHED
The work that I have created titled Debauched is my reflection on society its about unattainable aspiration. How we as a society spend to much money and time admiring the wrong types of people and how advertising makes us feel inadequate about ourselves so that we spend money to feel like we are a somebody. Debauched is also a new style in which I feel that the minimalist age is coming to an end and the future is in products that look luxurious and extravagant to show off to your peers on how successful you are in life.
Here is the debauched logo for the style you can also see it referenced in the stained glass window to the right that is a depiction of heaven on earth a place we all wish to aim for . the highest pinnacles of society and place that is only attainable to the very few.
Here is a still image of an App that i created it is an interactive 3D vision of the debauched style. to download this App please visit http/is.gd/lmmfmp
Here are some stills from my exhibition and is a glimpse of the debauched vision that I was creating. This included debauched objects which consist of a Faberge style egg and crown on gold plinths. Also a backlight stained glass window, debauched swan wallpaper and interactive App.
When first looking at a style that inspired me the most to create the debauched style I looked at catholic imagery for it power and persuasion that it used to convert people to that religion. I thought that if I could capture that power I could persuade people into liking my style. So here I recreated the Dove on St Peters in the Vatican.
When looking at the world around us I noticed that very desirable objects like phones actually were not made of luxurious materials if anything very cheap materials like glass and metal. Which got me thinking if debauched reached out into all types of design what would a phone look like that has been designed in the debauched mind set so here I created a not so bland looking phone..

With the skulls that I had drawn I decided to repeat them and I really liked the overall look of the repetition. I think that it easily could be adapted for fabric use or wallpaper.
Here is some work from a University brief were we were giving the chance to design album covers for an up and coming artist I chose Natalia Kills for her love of fashion and strong graphic lines. The album covers I created for her I think represent her well and look visually interesting.
Here are some examples of the images when using them in print screening I think the images are really graphically strong and have a pop art feel to them.
This idea was for Natalia’s song “Kill My Boyfriend” I didn’t want to show her literally killing him so I thought about making the message of sprayed blood tell the story of how he died. I think the image works really well and I like the red against the pure white it makes the blood really stand out.
Here are a few examples of my photography. I really enjoy photography and am a great lover of capturing everyday objects and also things that I think look visually interesting. I am also a great over of instagram and a lot of my images can be seen on my blog here: Princeluis.com
PRADA This project was to launch a new product for a label of our choice this was a collaborative project. Me and my team come up with the concept that Prada would launch luggage bags as this is a very big market that mainly Louis Vuitton has a hold on. The concept that we come up with was to do and event where Prada would take over four station each with a different deign and theme to launch different sets of luggage with different patterns here is some imagery that I created for this project. I worked on the Gothic/Art Deco theme luggage and stations.
Here Is a drawing I created on Illustrator I like architecture a lot and also enjoy drawing it I feel that it adds to my work and my passion for history.
Here is the Romanov crest completed and shaded in. This shows my skills well in Photoshop and Illustrator. Each feather was painstakingly drawn line by line. I think with this level of detail it makes the drawing richer to look at and adds depth.
FAIRYTALES Here is some work that I have been working on independently. One of my dreams is to become a Disney Imagineer and work on theme park designs and concepts. I have always been fascinated by creating the surreal in to reality so in my spear time I work on concepts for this career in the future.

I am passionate about creating beautiful images stylised by fashion
and extravagance. I get great inspiration from history and feel that it defines me as an individual and my work.
My imagery inspirations come from 18th century Europe and decadent pop icons of today, This reflects itself within my style, music, art, fashion, architecture and role models. -House Of Holland2013 Internship Feb-May
