The project
A couple came to Archicercle looking for a personal wedding gift for friends. After seeing our vector animal designs, they commissioned a bespoke piece centred on a portrait of Gordon.
A photograph of the dog was the starting point. At the studio, we manually traced the portrait as a vector drawing for the plaque, reinterpreting the face through geometric shapes and white lines against a black background.
Our work included the vector drawing, fabrication in MDF, lacquering and mounting on a decorative base. The piece was prepared for hanging or fixing in place; its final installation is not documented.
The commission adapted the visual language of our vector animal designs to an individual portrait. The personalisation went beyond adding a name: the drawing was developed from Gordon’s photograph to make him the central motif of the gift.
A bone-shaped piece carries Gordon’s name in white, completing the composition.
