For my final outcomes, I applied my 2D designs to my architectural building drawings, as well as created rough mock ups on the building photographs, to create a better of idea of how the illustrtaions would be applied and what impact they would create.
The final outcome for this project are supergraphics designs for the 'Royal Armouries' museum's exterior. The design consists of illustrations that represent the 6 different galleries within the museum, as well as the museum's logo. Illustrations were created to represent all 6 of the galleries to provide the audience with a preview of what can be seen within the museum, as well as the promote how vast the collection exhibited is. By having these illustrations combined with supergraphics, the likelihood of grabbing the attention of a passer by also increases, and could potentially intrigue them to come inside the museum. The colours used within the design are partly derived from the existing museum's branding. Their purpose are to distinguish the different illustrations and their galleries, as well as to bring some energy and excitement to the designs. The repetition of the illustrations was inspired by the repetition of the 'Hall of Steel' Gallery within the museum, which is one of the most iconic and memorable galleries. The repetition aims to mimic the impressive impact the 'Hall of Steel' gallery creates, as well as allows a unique visual language to form. The composition of the supergraphics on the building's walls creates a coherence and a connection between the architecture and the graphics. Utilising the existing white brick lines, and designing the illustrations around these not only makes the designs feel more comfortable and 'at home', but also strengthens the communication of the museums identity. The museum's logo is used partly to promote the museum and make it recognisable from further distances, as well as to bring an atmosphere of pride and confidence.
