Uppercase

I came across Uppercase recently looking for some research they produce magazines and books, their covers are beautiful they are so interesting to look at. This again is an areas that has not crossed my mind to look into for my briefs, this is definitely something work the considering for my FMP. What I love about these covers is the hand crafted element they have, something which is rarely found on book covers or magazines, I have posted a few example below. They are definitely someone I would like to approach with a portfolio of my work when I have finished my FMP, I don't feel my works up to the best standard just yet.

My Netty

I have decided I would like to introduce more pattern to my work in different forms other than wallpaper, I don't want to just be classed in the wallpaper category as people already seem to be and I have only design one. I came across My Netty and cant believe I haven't even considered gift wrap before its so obvious, I love their patterns they are beautiful so simple but laid out to form some amazing patterns so well. I always struggle to develop patterns similar to these where they are based on simple shapes repeated, this is definitely something I would like to work on in my FMP as I really feel it will help benefit my work immensely.
