Studio Brief 03 - Collaboration Branding: Finalising and Bringing Idea together

In this Blog, is our final design and final outcome of our collaboration work on the Banker’s Club. Unfortunately, I was unable to help my team not as much as I had fallen quite ill, therefore I was only able to give them feedback for the work that they design. The new colour scheme of the Banker’s Club became more lighter due to the previous presentation feedback that we received. The new colour scheme became a cream, gold and burgundy
concept. The meaning for the cream and burgundy colour psychology: Burgundy: a dark purplish red, it is more sophisticated and serious and less energetic than true red. It indicates controlled power, determined ambition and dignified action and is often favoured by the wealthy. And Cream, tinted with a hint of yellow, encourages new ideas. However, this very pale colour can also indicate a lack of confidence and a need for reassurance.The final typeface that we used were Fonts that the Logotype is the typeface OptimusPrinceps and Body type is all Helvetia thin-medium.

One of my group member (Sam) actually put all the designs together as a combination of our work. Which was then produced into a flyer than a cheque design look. There are images of the groups final designs.

Studio Brief 01 - How Do You Read? - Second Development

In this blog, I have finish printing out the physical small publication book of Design Principles. I believe this second development work was successful as the colours of the type has been nicely and evenly printed out.The information on the pages are arranged properly in the right order as to the the one on the Macbook. However, I need to chose a different type of paper stock which is much sturdier, e.g - card stock. As when I put the rubber band around the spine of the book it curls. Even though the visuals of the book is very minimalistic and simple I believe this is appropriate to the audience who would read this kind of book context. Especially, for young students who want to learn the right knowledge and information of design principles, whilst becoming a Graphic Designer. For the colour scheme I went for a very neutral yet colourful scheme, as these colours only outline the significant factors of Design...

'Every Book Starts with an Idea: Notes for Designers' - by Armand Mevis (Notes/Analysis)

During this session, we look into and analysis an essay called 'Every Book Starts with an Idea: Notes for Designers' by Armand Mevis. The whole class did a group discussion, we shared some significant quotes within the essay that relates to our brief Type in Context: ' All these books have to be designed. Someone needs to decide which paper, typography, cover, to use'. 'It may be a jungle; you may find it hard to get the nice job, and you might get lost, but that is part of the adventure'. Mistakes are inherent to the job of making books through trial and error'. Over the years we have learned to limit the number of mistake; we are now much more in control'. 'Ideally, all books start with a question. The clearer the question, the more precise the answer'. 'As designers we are as responsible for content as anyone else'. 'Some books arrived in plastic bags like garbage, stac...
