What's inside this resource

Shoe design project

Everyone wears shoes! We select our shoes based on their comfort, style, price, material, popularity, brand,

and so on. Today, there is a huge market for designers who create fascinating ideas for new shoes.

How will your shoes be the next big hit? Things to consider:

1) Target Market/ Clients

-Who are you designing these shoes for?

-What is their… age, job, hobby, favourite sport, style, location, etc.?

2) Inspiration

-How did you come up with your idea? Is it from something that already exists?

-How is your design going to be different from other designs?

3) Colours

-What colours go well together? Choose a main colour and add some complementary side colours. Do

your colours go with your theme? What details and images will you add?

TASK – Create and draw designs for 4 different types of shoes
