Julian presenting (Willcock, 2018)
Afterwards we were given our groups which included a level 4, level 5, level 6 student and two international students. We thought of idea's and problems that can be solved using the crystal metaphor for our KickOff Week projects.

Our idea
Based around teenagers and their need for choice and originality in clothing and fashion.
So we proposed an online store on a mobile app (or website) that enabled teenagers to be able to customise clothes, shoes, and accessories from their colour, size, motif, laces, sole etc. that they can purchase through our app/website.

I specifically wanted my logo to be an SG as these are my initials. Therefore I attempted to a few different designs until I found the one that I liked. For this post, I have put my logos on blackgrounds so that they are visible.

I decided to use a bootstrap template for my website as I thought this may have made elements faster to implement as the template would already be responsive. I researched the benefits of using bootstrap and according to Christopher Gimmer in his 2014 blog 'Top 5 Reasons to use Bootstrap', he stated in his conclusion that, "...there are several benefits to using Bootstrap. The framework allows for rapid, responsive development that is consistent and well supported by the development and design community." His five reasons were, "Speed of Development, Responsiveness, Consistency, Customizable, Support" which I understand and agree with and therefore believe it is beneficial to use bootstrap in this project. This specific bootstrap template was similar to my mockup design and therefore by editing the code this template could look similar to what I had designed and invisioned.
