Before starting my sketches and picking the three words I was going to use for my grids, I found a definition for each of them. My hope was that this could help spark an idea for what I could create with the points in the grids. I think I will go with the approach of taking all nine squares as one whole image, so they all link as I feel it would be the best way to clearly portray the words.
Once I chose my three words, multiply, disperse and dominance, I wanted to visually see the words, so I collated a few images to do with the words and created quick mood boards. I used these as a basis of my designs and focused back on them if I was struggling to come up with a composition.
After researching and mood boarding, I created very quick sketches to get my ideas down on paper. For multiply and disperse, it was easier to work with all nine boxes as one image whereas for dominance, I struggled to come up with a concept to include all the boxes, so each individual box with demonstrate the word. My next step was to develop my favourite ideas further to see which ones work best and which I will chose as my final design.
