esearch leaned towards an organic theme by coincidence of the exhibitions visited in Iceland, Belfast and small Boutiques in Holland. All of which involved natural elements reconstructed into man made sculptures, or resembled natural organisms. When gathering street style in Belfast, many where geared towards winter ware due to the time of year. However I found looking at layering worked in well with the natural theme, some people with monotone colour schemes and others with abstract bursts of colour.
atural sihloettes and patterns sourced at Mount Stewart. Once this research was gathered, traveling to Europe demonstrated how popular this natural element in design was over there. Small local shops selling garments to freshly grind coffee continued this organic theme, wither the element was found in the quality of the cloth, home interior patterns, and simple novelty items such as beetle or herb stamps.
olour scheme kept simple, fairly monotone with a stir of brighter colours. Tones reflect a natural feel, not too loud as the collection is based on comfort with strong elements of style and youth.
