Semi-Automated Pattern Catalogue System – Final Project












This is my final project for the class.
For this project, I built a structured catalogue system using Data Merge in InDesign, starting from a well-organized CSV file and a properly structured image folder.
The catalogue shown here is the A4 landscape master version — the one we build step by step throughout the class — including both wallpaper and fabric mockups.
All body pages were generated using Data Merge, based on a single structured dataset.
The goal was not just to design pages, but to create a reusable system that allows future catalogues to be generated efficiently and adapted to different formats or sectors.
In the images uploaded here, you can see:
• Cover
• Collection introduction pages
• Automated body pages
• Thumbnail overview & scale reference
• Contact and closing pages
The focus of this project is structure, consistency, and scalability.
Now it’s your turn. 😉
I encourage you to upload:
• Your cover
• At least one automated body page
• Your thumbnail overview page
You don’t need a large catalogue — what matters is building a clear and efficient system.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what you create. 💛
