B.Research
We hunt through relevent websites;international books;
magazines & trends in the market to precipitate few
concepts
C.Theme Board
Based on the brief from the client & our research;
a theme board is developed which shows the colours; the
ideas; the motifs & patterns; the accessories; type
of fabrics; the ambience etc approximately.It helps in
giving a preview to the client of the designs to be and
helps the client to reflect on the concept & give
his feedback so the relevence of the design is maintained.Once
the story board is approved we freeze the colour palette
& the concept.
Taking the theme board as the premises the fabrics
are designed. All the fabrics
are designedin actual
scale & have the details of warp/weft; reed/pick;
count/construction etc in case of wovens; actual print
artwork with repeat in case of prints & tracings &
embroidery details in case of surface ornamentations.
E.Product Styling
The fabrics
design are then scaled down for the
styling of the products. Scaled down version of all the
made ups are provided which gives the client a very clear
idea as to how the finished product would look even before
venturing onto its execution. Ir helps in doing required
changes at the artwork stage. These artworks could also
be used for a presentation to the buyer & get their
feed back before the sampling.
