nobori designs: Dane Ash Designer

nobori-designs
3 vivid and colorful designs for the front of a school advertising different courses on offer. The challenge in designing these is getting the balance of simplicity and impact right. Complicated designs don’t work so well. There are 2 fabric types, cotton and a synthetic which nobori are printed on. The cotton ones seems to hold color better where as the synthetic nobori colors tend to bleed and run. The use of strokes and a background fill will help stop the color from running I noticed.
