November 14, 2011 marked the start of a very special journey for Make it in Design. It was day one of the first ever surface pattern design e-course ‘Module 1: Designing your way’ from The Art and Business of Surface Pattern Design.
In the last four years over 5,000 creatives from 62 countries have joined us for one of our acclaimed courses, producing over 100,000 gorgeous patterns and works of art between them during the course alone. WOW!
Thank you so much for being part of our lives over the last four years. We are delighted at all the success you are enjoying as a result of it; thriving as professional designers, winning design contests, securing licensing deals, finding your true creative identity and so much more.
So we thought we’d have some birthday fun and invite EVERYONE to design or create a number 4! This can be in any format of your choice so you could create your number 4 out of pasta, buttons even sweets – the possibilities are endless!
Alternatively we have two templates for you to download, so whether you want to adorn the number 4 with a pattern of your choice or construct a 3D number 4 and take a snap. Once you have your number 4 we would love you to share it with us and the rest of the world – see below for full details.
