Design Services Brochure

Last week, I worked on creating a brochure with the goal of making a piece of eye-catching print media. My first design was clean and minimal, but not very dynamic. This week, with some feedback from De’sha, I was able to push the movement in my brochure and tweak the user experience so that the flow of information was better. The end result is a more logical brochure with greater visual appeal and flair without sacrificing usability. Finally, I made some edits to incorporate the collage into the rest of the brochure instead of as a separate page and tweaked the color scheme to better match LAITS branding sensibilities.

Basic Training: Shape and Pattern

In this training, I reviewed the principles of shape and how to create patterns in illustrator. As a final exercise, I practiced creating hierarchy through the use of shape, relying minimally on typography and color.

Humming Along

This week at work, I made incremental changes to my Custom Course Graphics. In the meantime, I began work on some other trainings. As the projects begin to take on their own blog posts, you’ll see less of them in these weekly updates. The last time I studied the Elements and Principles of Art (or Design) was in high school, so re-learning them for this training was a walk down memory lane. I have changed a lot since I last studied them — after all, it has been three years of design schooling at UT for me! I also had a good time creating my own color wheel to illustrate what I learned about Color Theory in Basic Training. Taking inspiration from Jony Ive’s Terra/Astra Carta seals, I created a tongue-in-cheek latin color wheel.
