Working in the art and design industry
Interior Designer:
An interior designer can do a variety of things in the field of design, and considers the needs of the individual or company that hires him or her. Primarily, the interior designer must blend aesthetics, or the look and feel of a place, with functionality and use of a space, and does so in consideration of the available working area, desires, and budget of the client. Being artistic, having knowledge of building codes, and being able to please the client are all valuable assets for those who wish to have a career in interior design. Having good listening skills, excelling at following through with concepts, and being able to draw, and use programs like AutoCAD® can also be of assistance. Most interior designers are trained in art or design schools, and bring a variety of talents to their profession.

Kim Atkins: Interior Designer
Kim started working as a interior designer in 1987, where she ran her own business called Kim’s Interiors from 1987 till 1993, she then went on and worked at ‘kingfisher Group’ from 1993 till 1999 where she co-ordinate revamp store set designs and organized staff product and skills training.





These are two examples of Kim’s work, the top one is where she was a guest designer for a national magazine called home flair. The bottom one is from a home visit where Kim and her collogue designed a new bathroom for a couple.

Graphic Designer:
A graphic designer or graphic artist conveys information through visual solutions that promote or enhance a service, product, philosophy or entity. Graphic design is a professional umbrella term for a skill set that can be applied to a wide range of positions. A good graphic designer has strong interpersonal and marketing skills, in addition to a keen eye and an adept knowledge of electronic media packages.

Graphic artists work with a variety of materials, including film media, animation, sound, images, illustration, type, color, and “white space.” The first step of any project is to identify the needs of the client. The designer must also consider the target market, taking social or cultural considerations into account. The process normally starts with a hand-drawn or electronic sketch of the layout, followed by a mockup presented for approval. A mockup that is attractive but fails to convey

The City Project



This is my first silhouette  i done. First i took a couple of pictures from google images of Brighton architecture, like the pivillion and then i went on photoshop and used the magnetic laso tool to go round the edge then turn it black, i did the same to the mary go round , bandstand and the sea gul. i then added brighton in the back ground to finish.

I started to play around with the pattern overlay tool by getting a photo of the internet ( pebbles) then defiying it in photoshop and putting it as the apttern for Brighton by pressing  layer styles, then pattern overlay. I decided to get a picture of my own work and use it in a random shape jsut to see the outcome.

i Binded the two work together to get one, i thought the two brightons was quite effective as it looked like it was shadowing.
