Production Technology: The creation of the images begins with preparatory digital sketches, created using Pixlr - Photo Editor. The second step is image generation, using AI technology and different applications. After the primary selection, they are additionally edited and refined with Adobe Photoshop.
Design Challenge: Challenges have been encountered due to the limitations of some programs and applications. These obstacles have been overcome by skillfully exploiting the distinctive characteristics of each available tool. Occasionally, initial sketches required revision, while other cases required producing multiple generations of generated images before achieving the desired result. The AI technology phase was challenging as the designer learned the logic of the algorithm, and tried to choose the appropriate prompts.
Research: The project began in response to a creative impulse and inspiration from the Glagolitic script. Thanks to technology, it has been possible to predict the validity of design solutions. While working on the different designs, the designer also conducted historical and visual research into the use of this script over past centuries. Alongside the work on the designs, a phase of experimentation began with different illustration approaches. Illustrations related to this series are often published on social media, to test the reaction to the visual appearance, design, fashion category, and specific inspiration.
Inspiration: The inspiration for this illustration comes from the second letter of the Glagolitic script, known as Buky. This artwork aims to showcase a design inspired by this ancient writing system and its modern use in fashion design. The foundation of this project lies in the timeless elegance of these letters.
Project Duration: The design project based on the Glagolitic script started in January 2024 in Skopje and is still in the development phase. It was a sequel to the previous project from 2017, which focused on the use of Glagolitic letters for pattern creation. The main illustration, part of the Buky series, was created in February 2024. It was used for the homepage of Nikola Eftimov's website.
Operation Flow: The purpose of these illustrations is the presentation of design work, simulation of possible products or sometimes starting points in the realization of specific designs. Some images from this series have already been used for interviews, on a personal website, and also for posts on social media.
