A brief, mini project to create a series of badges about passions. It was suggested to follow the I ♥ NY template and whilst I will probably do some actual passions later here’s a quick side just done with @Matt_Flynn for our club night; Pipedown.

Matt took the Pipedown logo, rotated and created a repeating pattern (though annoyingly the P doesn’t quite tessellate.) By then applying colour this was turned into camouflage. The idea being that you could print sheets of this camo and cut out circles the correct size of the badge and you would instantly get large numbers or completely unique badges very easily.

I am fascinated by camouflage that isn’t really camouflage and geometric pattern and wallpaper at the moment, the work of Manuel Sepulveda especially. Expect this idea to be developed and revisited soon.

You can see mockups of the badges, the whole process and colourways after the jump (as well as another use of the pattern in an ad quickly chucked together for LuckyPDF.)
