Hugo Boss Design Contest

Below are some designs and rough concepts for a Hugo-Boss design contest I'm entering.
The theme for this week is "red white & black". Oh and I'm allowed to submit up to five entries per week so what I'm posting includes my possibilities and just random rough pieces.

A_Version one:
B_Version one:
other roughs/junk:


Still a lot more work to be done by the end of the week but for now, the two initial designs and some rough bottle work. Currently, I want to think of maybe two more concepts then begin refining each- 6 more days to go.

*side note, here is a link to my dma500 photography-portfolio site for class. The site is viewed best in firefox and looks somewhat sketchy in other browsers (opacity issues, layout bugs) but is optimized for firefox :D

Mobile Mock Ups

Below are a follow-up to the corporate mock ups I did previously for class. These mobile mock-ups are two examples of differnt styles companies could approach
Mcdonalds:



LG:



Eros - Tea Shops

Another class assignment, this time I had to create a tea shop mock up themed around the greek god Eros. Below are version one and two and some notes.

Version One:

Notes:
  • Needed hotspot logos and more information
  • Too much space around Header
  • Logo too large

Version Two:

Notes:
  • Header still needs more work, still looks somewhat too plain
  • Logo also looks slightly sketchy but improved from version one

LG site-mockups

LG site-mockups for class.

Version One:


Notes:

  • All copy looks extremely washed out, navigation too large and strangely alligned.
Version 2:


Notes:

  • Top navigation bar color needs to stay consistent to the rest of the design
  • Banner or some other content needs to be added

McDonalds Webmock ups

McDonalds website mockups for class.
Version One:
Notes:
  • Deemed too dark for McDonalds brand guidelines, not enough navigation options or copy,
This concept was exchanged for a brighter version.
Version 2:
Notes:
  • Version two featured a extremely red color scheme which ultimately overpowered viewers
  • Again, version two lacked copy & did not make full use of space
Version 3:Notes:
  • Near complete concept, featured more copy, banner ads, improved legal bar
  • However main image seemed out of place and eventually was replaced

Version 4:

Notes:
  • future changes- smaller copy boxes,
  • expandable side navigation bar and main navigation bar
