Design Challenge Entry: 'Andy's Blue Pandas Ultra-Steady Steady State by Su_G' - wallpaper mockup
'Andy's Blue Pandas Ultra-Steady Steady State by Su_G': my entry in Spoonflower's 'Pantone Ultra-Steady Wallpaper' Design Challenge. Hand drawn in ink pen + line art. © Su Schaefer 2023
Only colors from the Pantone-curated Ultra-Steady palette and suggested color harmonies complementing the palette were used.
My inspirations included a recent Andy Warhol exhibition which features his giant red panda, and real life pandas at Adelaide Zoo. If you want to know more about Giant Panda Bears this is a nice page with lots of information from Adelaide zoo, where I first saw them in the flesh. At that time, one fell asleep half-way through a doorway. They might have simply been exhausted by so many visitors, but it looked like an ultra-steady state to me. :-)
Shown as wallpaper in the mockup (c/o Spoonflower).
New voting system still has bugs still being ironed out. The link for voting may be www.spoonflower.com/design-challenge/pantone-ultra-steady... - open for one week only. BUT be warned! There will be about 1,700 entries, many of which will have little to no relationship to the brief (using the Pantone steady-state restricted palette) & we're still playing spot the AI-generated entries (they're the ones with strange numbers of fingers and toes & other body part mistakes that humans don't do).
If you do feel reckless and decide for the "new and exciting" voting experience please let me have some quotable quotes re what worked and what didn't so I can pass them on to Spoonflower. Thank you! :-)
