CASE 01 / COLOUR & COLLECTION
One frame.
Six colour directions.
A navigator silhouette developed through material and lens combinations, with a dimensioned drawing in the same project archive.

A collection grows
from the details.
These are original front-view sample photographs from one development record. Compare the effect of the acetate pattern and lens colour on the same silhouette.
Discuss a related colour seriesWhat the record shows.
One silhouette can carry a varied collection through acetate pattern, translucency and lens tone. The material and lens choices are reviewed as a pair.

Frequently asked questions about this study
Case 01 / colour series
What does this study record?
Six original front-view sample photographs of one navigator silhouette, developed through acetate pattern, translucency and lens tone, together with a dimensioned technical drawing from the same project archive. The record shows how one shape can carry a varied collection rather than six unrelated frames.
Can one frame really support six colour directions?
Yes, when the material and lens are reviewed as a pair. The same silhouette reads differently depending on how the acetate pattern falls and how the lens tone sits against it, so a collection can be built from one shape without repeating the same look across the range.
Was this a real customer project?
It is a development record from the sample archive shown without customer identities. Brand and buyer are not disclosed. The photographs are original sample images rather than renders, so the colour and pattern placement shown are what the material actually produced.
