Subconscious methods of design.

Though this may not directly link to my project I thought that it displays clearly how the 'enjoyment' side of the subconscious can play into our likes and dislikes.
And how the subconscious can simply be described as our pure instinct and reaction to situations and experiences.

'simply the forms which instincts assume' - Carl Jung, Archetype Theory.

Ted Baker Brief 2009

As much as the displays are interesting I still never find myself compelled to go into the store and buy anything. Why is that?
Of course the displays make this brand unique and individual in its approach to gaining the consumers attention but does it actually draw people into the store? Oe merely a ply to make the consumer remember the brand?

Puma Creative Exhibit. 2009

http://creative.puma.com/us/en/2009/01/inside-london’s-design-museum-for-“hussein-chalayan—from-fashion-and-back”-exhibition/

What caught my attention on this webpage was the space layout of the designs. Many though with few objects of attention still expressed exactly what the brand wanted and showcased their products clearly and beautifully.
