After coming up with the new idea that suits the type of direction I want to go in and also to make my portfolio more consistent with the design style I collected some primary research to form the content of the book. I wanted to collect at least thirty memories, contrasting in ages as to get a variety of different memories from different eras. I have collected 35 so far but would like to get to forty for the book. I will now have to decided on whether the memories should be displayed in the book with type or with hand writing. At first I thought about using peoples individual hand writing to form the design but i gathered about half of the memories through email so this wouldn't work as using a combination of personal handwriting and type could make it look inconsistent.
These are all the memories collected so far, written down with a variety in content and context, happy, sad, from the nineties, from the sixties, with siblings and cousins, with grandparents etc.
35-40 memories
It was actually really interesting to read the collection of memories I'd gathered and to see the contrast in ages, more modern memories evoked nostalgia from my own childhood whereas reading memories from people I'd asked born in the sixties or before hand was a complete contrast.
