The Design

About Formosa Sapphire Marama

Formosa Sapphire je svilena marama ukrašena uzorkom Swinhoeovog fazana, vrste ptice endemične za Tajvan. Dizajn odlikuju ručno crtani potezi kičice, fine linijske teksture i žive boje. Ptica je proučavana putem fotografija i referentnih knjiga, a zatim detaljno nacrtana. Umjetničko djelo je pretvoreno u vektorsku datoteku kako bi se sačuvali originalni potezi i boje, te je naneseno na svilu digitalnim štampanjem. Marama ima dimenzije 650 sa 650 milimetara. Namjera je predstaviti endemske tajvanske ptice široj publici i podržati svijest o zaštiti ptica.

Design Challenge
At first, all the sketches and paints are on paper, in order to print, the designer has to convert the original artworks into a vector image file. During the conversion process, adjustment work was time-consuming and challenging because the designer wanted to keep the original strokes and bright colors.
Research
Since Swinhoe's Pheasant is difficult to find, the designer observed the appearance of the animal through photographs and from the book Wild Bird of Taiwan, then drew the beautiful appearance of the animal delicately.
Inspiration
Swinhoe's Pheasant is a kind of endemic species in Taiwan. It is covered in feathers with blue color and its gestures are eye-catching and difficult to see. The designer was once lucky to see the Swinhoe's Pheasant in a mountain, and she was immediately impressed by the animal. She believes these birds should be introduced to the world. At the same time, people can also raise the awareness of endemic species birds conservation.
