Herbert sees the light.

Whilst undertaking a new project I got stuck with inspiration to create a character and story with. Looking at images I had taken of Herbert's bar I noticed that one of the signifier's signified that birds were not able to sit there, but probably, once had.

By applying my knowledge of semiotics and looking at the signified in the image I could begin to create a story about a pigeon who wants to enter the bar, but can't. He decides to walk into the bar and on his way at the doorway he sees a moroccan light. I created three lampshade designs merging the pigeon and the moroccan influences together.

Design One.

Design Two.

Design Three.
