Contemporary Jewellery Inspired By Design Movements of The 20th Century.

| Bauhaus Design |
While
designing for my personal range, I really enjoyed researching and learning
about the Art Deco and Art Nouveau design movements. I found it fascinating how
a design movement can have such a vast effect on different aspects of our
lives. From the way our houses are built and decorated, our clothes, jewellery,
cars, these different styles influenced the world in major ways.
I think
that it would be interesting to re look at these different movements and draw inspiration
from them to design and make contemporary, modern pieces of jewellery.
By looking
at these various design movements (such as modernism, Bauhaus, pop art, American
kitsch etc.) I want to create pieces of jewellery that will celebrate these
movements and how vastly they influenced design in the past and how without
realising it, how they influence design in our modern day lives.
As part
of my Btech I’d also like to look at 3D forms and incorporating colour into
jewellery.
This slide show explains some of the different design movements and their elements.
