CHATTY FEET
In early 2023 I had the opportunity to work with the brand Chatty Feet, who primarily design socks in the likeness of various celebraties and charcaters from throughout history. I had the chance to design a sock for Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the primary founder of the internet.
This project consisted of vigourous research and development. I really enjoyed rooting around to find the key aspects that capture the likeness of Sir Berners-Lee, and find the most efficient way to convey his achievements.

TIM BERNERS-KNEE!
Part of the commission schedule meant that I needed five potential outcomes to bring to Chatty Feet before getting feedback and working towards the final outcome. I used this opportunity to explore the vast opsibilities that I could explore so that those at Chatty Feet had pleanty of choice whne it came to developing a final design.

Following the five experiments and the feedback I got I was able to return to developments, closing in on my portrayl of Sir Berners-Lee. This primarily explored using iconography to convey Berners-Lee’s relationship to the internet. Working to undertsnad people and how their brains recognise images is more and mroe fascinating to me, expecially as I was working with Chatty Feet here.
