Sketchbook Planning
The planning process starts with a sketchbook. This is where a designer can collect his/her ideas and do a collabration of work before settling on a final concept. Throughout the sketchbook process the concept of Alice and Wonderland was becoming a stronger attribute to the festival thus becoming the chosen theme for Edinburgh Lumiere 2015.
As part of the planning process a close was chosen to make a small to scale model . This helping see what works best within a small proximity. It gives the designer a chance to experiment and play with the close without actually having to travel to the Royal Mile. The photographs above are from a model of “Fountain Close” one of the featured closes within the “Wonderland” festival.
