I started by scanning my images in to illustrator and editing them from there. It took a long time to correctly space them out and get them in the right order
once i had done this i had to put the information in on the right chairs, i decided to use the chairs model, the date it was made, the material it was made out of and who it was made by. I felt this was relevant information to make the poster more interesting.
Once I had finished the information I started to experiment with colour because I felt it had no real imact when you looked at it doe the the line being pretty faint on the white background, I didnt like the way the colours looked and overall i felt it looked pretty unnecessary.
This is my final poster design, instead of using colour I effectively highlighted the model of each chair which i think overall gives the poster more impact. I got pretty lucky with the final design because I felt the poster lacked a point until I found that in 2009 Muji had released a 150th anniversary chair of the original No.14 Side chair. The chairs design looked like a simplified version of its iconic counterpart and I felt by including it tied the whole poster together.
