Make an A1 black and white poster that communicates a message in an attention grabbing and engaging way. This can be purely typographic or type and image based.

Another thing I could do...
Draw out each of my previously posted photographs of ambiance/temperature/sensation and use them in conjunction with previous posts and make an illustrated booklet containing all aspects of how to create warmth.

Jars of Warmth
My idea influenced by the goodfood gift jar recipe, was to use the idea of the jar.
I thought it would be really lovely to have the warmth in a physical form. Having an interpretation of warmth off of the paper and in a 3D format could leave the imagination to see better.
Instead of the ingredients for a cake mix however, I thought about the idea of using an imaginative combination which realistically doesn't make anything, however I could create instructions which are fictional to explain how these jars can create warmth.
The made-up/unrealistic of the things inside the jar, and how it magically creates warmth, has been inspired by the photos taken from Network Magazine - the guy showing different ways in which you can fly.
Below are four 'Jars of Warmth'
these are simply representational, so I still have a lot of work to do!
I must now imagine what they do and the method needed to achieve warmth.
I've made four, but I will just choose three to use.
One will have instructions of how to create warmth in temperature.
Another will have instructions of how to create warmth in emotion.
The last will have instructions of how to create warmth in sensation.
I just need to choose my three favourites and start each element at a time!
What to do with it.
What it will transform into.
Sketchbook Initial Ideas
The start of my inspiration came from this image of a recipe above.
Its taken from the bbc goodfood website.
Its a jar containing the dry ingredients for a muffin mix, which can then be given to someone as a gift, so they can make some muffins.
You then need to attach instructions so that the receiver of the gift knows what to do with it...
Write the following method on a gift label: 'Tip the contents of the jar into a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the centre and add 2 beaten eggs, 300ml/½pt milk and 100g/4oz melted butter. Mix quickly and lightly to a soft batter. Divide between 12 muffin cases. Bake at 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 for 18-20 mins. Use within 4 weeks.' Attach the label and a wooden spoon to the top of the jar with some raffia or coloured ribbon.
I thought this idea was a brilliant start for an initial idea for my project.
a. Baking something yummy creates warmth in itself..
b. It creates a warming ambiance from the smell of it cooking.
c. Giving homemade baked goods as a gift to someone is a warming gesture.
So... How can I take this initial concept on into a new way?

These are some illustrated instructions as to how to make the cake with the dry ingredients, which would appear on the label attached to the jar.
