Free Spirit Pattern Designs

These groovy pattern designs were completed in 2020 as a student project while attending the Make it in Design Summer School. The assignment brief we were provided with called for designing a 1960s/1970s pattern with bursting, vintage-inspired, bold florals, iconic geometrics and warm retro colors.

​

The flowers were drawn in Adobe Illustrator and arranged into several versions and pattern designs. The flowers have a bold outline reminiscent of the 1960-1970 time period. The bold colors compliment the bold flowers and I imagined them applied to fabric for fabric designs.

The repeat patterns were drawn and arranged in Adobe Illustrator. The mock-ups were created in Adobe Photoshop.
