Final design sketch for ‘Iris’ handbag by Johnny Coca for Mulberry, 2018, London
Gallery label
The creative process often begins by drawing on paper, varying in scale from tiny sketches in notebooks to larger studies that convey overall shape and details. As ideas become more refined, detailed technical designs are developed to capture specific aspects such as materials and construction techniques. These act as a means of communication between the designer and prototype-makers, hence the many written instructions given here by Álvaro and Coca. Presentation drawings can also be used at the end of the creative process as a record of the finished piece as well as for promotional purposes. V&A, Room 40, Bags: Inside Out(12/2020)
