Connected, synchronous, pilable, complicated, muddled, alike, stiff, fragile, scattered

Idea and design by Svetlana Mijic ©2015 

 

The project is based on lines. The drawings contain only lines and a neutral background. The book is divided into 12 topics, and each topic contains 6 representative drawings. It is about the reform of the line in one drawing.  

 

Every part of the book has its own characteristics, that are gaving a sort of rhythm to the book, in order to better understand the drawings without necessary explanation and every part of the book has some key words, adjectives, which indirectly describe the drawings. I also have set to myself some parameters that helped me to to limit the huge amount of possibilities,what you have when you draw. I worked with these parameters : 

1. connect the dots 

2. combine one straight line and semicircles 

3. draw a closed line that is made of many small lines 4. line chaos 

5. lines that intertwine 

6. make a grid and something inside of it 

7. just straight lines, use a ruler 

8. create a free form 

9. pastel colors 

10. thicker lines which should not touch 

11. 50% color 50% black 

12. monochrome and dense
