Time Designed Series, Part 3: When in Rome (and Greece)

Here's part three of the Time Designed series (see part one here and part two here).  This mood board was inspired by my favorite time period, ancient Greece.  All Classical design has roots in the beautiful architecture of ancient Greece and Rome, the masters of proportion and engineering.  The board itself was inspired by (as seen from left to right below), is the east pediment of the Parthenon (part of the Elgin Marbles)ceramic vase portraying Heracles and Athena, a recreation of the lost colossal statue and a fresco from Pompeii.  I love the deep reds in their ceramics and frescos and the amazing sculptures from that time.
