idea + explainPurpose: design the Jaguar for Elmwood Park Zoo.
Idea: My first rough idea is to ask myself “How can I combine the vibe of the zoo with Temple vibe?”. I first start to research the animals in the zoo and some events to interpete the sense of the zoo. Then, I list the Temple elements, such as the the owl - temple representative icon, red and white are colors in Temple logo, ... to contain the Temple vibe. I did some sketches that pop in my mind after the research. The “jaguar wears the owl costume" is one of those.
