I started off by drawing imagery of different bike parts. I tired to draw these as accurately as I could because I wanted to use some technical drawings to represent how much effort and maths goes in to the designing of a frame.
Although this was my intention, the images still ended up looking quite illustrative, so I adapted my plan. I decided to lay them out, as if you were building up a new bike. I wanted all the key parts (frame, forks and bars) with a few other important parts. I kept my colour palette fairly neutral, with the plan to change this once I had decided on a composition.

Once I had arranged a few compositions, I decided to add some type to give them a finished look. I decided to keep them neutral, with a bold colour surrounding the typography. This would make it stand out against the neutral back ground.
I like these images, but knew that I didn't want to take these compositions any further, I decided to use certain drawings to create abstract repeated designs. The repeated patterns worked well and decided to compose them into a more graphic layout. This would allow me to add subtle typography and to give them a finished feel. I was happy with the outcome of these designs, but I want to save them till I have shot my photos, as I want to incorporate my images into these designs.
