INTERIOR DESIGN INSPIRATION FOUR SEASONS OF LOVE

Hello Design Desire readers,

I often gain my design inspiration from my observation from various resources. From the environment I'm in, the places I visits such as museums, hotels, bars and shop displays. A plate of dessert which is beautifully created by the chef to an album sleeve design from my favourite stars!

Since this month I'm celebrating the two year anniversary of my hardcover for Donna Summer The Thrill Goes On - A Tribute, I would love to share with you my design thinking for one of her album sleeve designs.

"Endless stories and inspiration can be gained from Summer’s music and album art work. For example, the ‘Four Seasons Of Love’ album sleeve colour palate is like a room with dark solid wood flooring! Summer’s coat on ‘Winter Melody’ conjures up a warm room with a deep textured cream rug to soften the floor. The continuous music play and Summer’s sensual voice is reminiscent of the ergonomic shape of a 1971 classic ‘Bocca’ seating that was itself inspired by a Salvador Dali painting, ‘The Face Of Mae West’. The song choruses are the essence of spring, with pinks, blues, and yellows providing a palate for the walls. Summer’s version of Marilyn Monroe’s ‘The Seven Year Itch’ scene with its billowing white dress is the silk curtain that falls to the floor, creating a sense of drama and romance when the summer winds blows from the window."

INTERIOR DESIGN INSPIRATION FOR SEASONS OF LOVE Malay Translation:

Hello pembaca Design Desire,

Saya sering mendapat inspirasi rekaan saya dari pemerhatian saya dari pelbagai sumber. Dari persekitaran saya, tempat-tempat yang saya lawati seperti muzium, hotel, bar dan pameran di kedai. Satu makanan pada pinggan pencuci mulut yang dicipta indah oleh chef ke reka bentuk sampul album daripada bintang kegemaran saya!

Oleh kerana bulan ini saya menyambut ulang tahun ke-dua tahun untuk hardback untuk buku Donna Summer The Thrill Goes On - A Tribute saya, ingin saya berkongsi dengan semua reka bentuk fikiran saya dari salah satu reka bentuk sampul album beliau.

"Banyak cerita-cerita yang tidak berkesudahan dan inspirasi boleh diperolehi dari muzik dan album kerja seni Donna Summer ini. Sebagai contoh, album 'Four Seasons Of Love' penuh dengan warna seperti bilik dengan lantai kayu pepejal yang gelap! Kot musim sejuk pada 'Winter Melody' adalah seperti sumber memanaskan bilik dengan permaidani krim bertekstur untuk melembutkan lantai. Mainan muzik yang berterusan dan suara sensual Donna Summer ini mengingatkan bentuk yang ergonomik tempat duduk 'Bocca' ciptaan klasik 1971 yang diilhamkan oleh lukisan Salvador Dali, ‘The Face Of Mae West. Lagu-lagu pada korus adalah intipati musim bunga, dengan warna jambu merah jambu, biru, dan kuning menyediakan hiasan untuk dinding. Versi gambar Donna Summer daripada Marilyn Monroe pada ‘The Seven Year Itch’ dengan layaran hembusan angin yang berpakaian putih adalah tirai sutera yang jatuh ke lantai, mewujudkan rasa drama dan romantik apabila musim panas angin bertiup dari tingkap." (Donna Summer The Thrill Goes On - A Tribute, 2012 / 2013)

Ini adalah imej untuk pemikiran rekaan saya. Selamat Nikmati!
