Exhibition Showcase

This week we were to bring our concepts to ‘life’ and exhibit them at the Market Gallery in the Town centre of Huddersfield. Our concept has so many aspects to it, that we were unable to produce the content in the small amount of space that we were given. So, when considering this, we neededContinue reading “Exhibition Showcase”

90/90 SK8ERS

I was in charge of curating the website which would show: the products we would hypothetically sell, have any updates that we have upcoming, provide any information about the store and its finders, and also have any contacts details and links to other social media accounts. This is something I have done for my ownContinue reading “90/90 SK8ERS”

Marketing

In a way to advertise ourselves, products and the amenities we will provide for those interested in our banding, we have decided to create a social media account, solely on Instagram.

Ideal

To establish ourselves and a theme throughout, using other skateboarding influences is very important. An influence for our website in particular has come from that of Ideal Skate, in Birmingham, being one of the first Skateboarding shops to open in the UK, and being open for the last 25 years, it has a lot ofContinue reading “Ideal”

The Old Co-Operative

With research for possible locations, it was important to us that we improved the state of skateboarding in Huddersfield, and making sure skateboarders have somewhere to go. One of the reasons behind this is the lack of space for those who enjoy the sport, resulting in them using the multi-story carpark next to the marketsContinue reading “The Old Co-Operative”

Accessibility for disability

One of the aspects during group meetings that we have wanted to be open-minded around, was the inclusion of disabilities in the store. Because, we have chosen a subject and idea surrounding sports and skateboarding, this leaves a gap for those with inabilities to get involved in these sports, this is why research into whatContinue reading “Accessibility for disability”

The Skateboarding Fashion

Their are many popular aspects that come from skating and it’s fashion. The unique branding surrounding this has been around for decades, and particularly seen from the 60s, as i-D mentions that it began with striped t-shirts, originating from sailors. Bringing the essence of borrowed fashion, however making it successful and trendy. The separation betweenContinue reading “The Skateboarding Fashion”

My Contributions

In a creative collaborative group, I believe I am going to find it difficult when introducing my own creative abilities and contributions, particularly as I feel that over the course of this project, there will be more work and contributions available from the rest of the group (who are all graphic designers). This is becauseContinue reading “My Contributions”
