Ocean Pack

Starting to look into relevant content, these bags are a useful way to protect your belongings while you're around water. They may not necessarily be well constructed or be made from luxurious materials but they certainly serve a purpose. The aesthetic of the bag isn't taken into consideration because the main purpose is to be waterproof.

 However, it can be manufactured to a higher quality which makes the accessory seem more expensive and better finished. Sometimes it can be easy to disguise a product and make it look expensive but in other examples it can highlight that a product has been made cheaper which in these 2 products you can clearly see the difference between the two.

With the addition of the belt.

Initial ideas

When I first started this brief the initial idea of jewellery came to mind. I'd already got some images in my head from my favourite brands that would inspire my own piece, most of them are organic yet simple designs which is what I wanted to achieve. The almost unpolished aesthetic to these pieces is what appeals to me so I wanted to include this style in my potential designs. These shapes remind me of seabeds and coral which links to the images I started collecting on pinterest. In order to achieve this it would involve the use of the metal work facilities which is something I'd have to look into, without the facilities it would prevent me from going ahead with this idea.

Acronym

While still researching for my essay and practical work I thought it would be relevant to put in this brand that I've been looking into called 'Acronym'. Their style in a fusion of function and aesthetic whilst taking influence from a number of resources, mostly eastern asian culture and techwear. There is a 3 minute video on the link which I will put below for you to watch, it visualises the difference because techwear for function purposes and for aesthetic purposes which is something I'm discussing in my essay. https://www.grailed.com/drycleanonly/techwear-cyberpunk-orientalism
