The project is done and submitted, the paper is away, and so it is time to rest.  I thought this would be a good (and belated) opportunity to display some concept work that we produced along the way in our efforts to settle upon a final design iteration for Circle. Here is the logo.  Not much changed here. As you can see, despite the name upon which we settled, the grid originally consisted of rectangular tiles, drawing inspiration from the Metro theme in Windows 8 – you know, that thing that everyone hates and ditches in favor of the desktop anyway.  Rectangles ended up being less modular for the purposes of a mockup, so we went for circles instead.  It was easier to produce, and I suppose it was more in keeping with our professed design theme anyway.

Here is the next layer.  The concept is much the same as the final form – nothing ever vanishes from view as you move through the layers.  Personally, I kind of like the rectangles – they might be a nice alternative skin to consider in a later iteration of the project.

Here we have the final layer.  Nothing much to comment on here that I haven’t already said.

That about concludes things here, for me anyways!  Only one question remains: should this blog have an expiry date?
