COLOR BLOCKING

CMD's start the day dropping in colors onto their line art for color blocking. Color blocking exercises help designers visualize the silhouettes as well as the opportunities for colors to highlight the feature or story of the shoe. CMD's note down that not every color needs to be placed on the shoe, and sometimes less is more. They also learned that details, accuracy and proportions are key important components needed for line art in order to successfully communicate the design of the shoe.
