Mosaics inspired by Orla Kiely. The first stage was to research Kiely's designs and style. Secondly, we used photographs of nature to create our own simple, bold designs. We then created our tiled version.
We used 3D modelling on the computer to create packaging for a new product. We used colour, text and interesting shapes. We then printed the nets out and constructed the 3D paper models.
