Design

The design for We Came As Romans' apparel collection for their album and track "DarkBloom" embodies the metaphorical concept of growth amidst darkness. Central to the design is the theme of duality, representing the band's journey through both darkness and growth following the passing of their previous lead singer. The design features two key floral motifs: lotuses and Red Spider Lilies which were both digitally illustrated in Photoshop. Lotuses symbolize resilience and growth in adversity, as they are the only flowers that can bloom in darkness. Red Spider Lilies, on the other hand, serve as a symbol of farewell and rebirth, reflecting the band's journey of mourning and renewal. The juxtaposition of these two floral designs mirrors the band's emotional journey and the overarching concept of the album. Through this design, We Came As Romans' apparel collection serves as a visual representation of hope, resilience, and renewal emerging from darkness that fans would greatly appreciate.

Development

Development

The development of the design project for We Came As Romans' apparel collection centered on translating the metaphorical themes of their album and track "DarkBloom" into visually compelling designs. It commenced with comprehensive research into the band's conceptual inspiration and thematic elements.

Conceptualization sessions were then conducted to explore various design concepts and visual motifs that could effectively convey the themes of duality, growth, and renewal. The idea of duality emerged as a central theme, reflecting the band's journey through darkness and growth, and served as a guiding principle throughout the design development.

Sketches, digital mock-ups, and mood boards were created to visualize different interpretations of the floral motifs, lotuses, and Red Spider Lilies. These floral symbols were chosen for their significance in representing resilience, growth, farewell, and rebirth, aligning with the band's narrative and thematic depth.

From there with the final selected element's, bold typography, and featured digitally illustrated motifs I mocked the designs up.
