Week 6

Rationale


My topic was the coolest streets of Wellington. I wanted to convey adventurousness and fun, and make the streets look exciting to visit and explore.  I used bright colours with various patterns and images to bring a sense of fun into the spreads and then included an illustration of a certain landmarks to visually identify the locations. I adhered to the grid with some aspects of my composition like the location of body text but otherwise was a bit loose with the grid to keep a sense of fun going on in my composition. I wanted my type to have a mix of serif and sans serif to add some contrast and playfulness to the spreads. I learned that I get stuck with creating initial concepts or new ideas but as soon as I find something I like the process is a lot quicker. In future projects I’ll have to work harder on just getting lots of ideas out in the beginning and gathering more inspiration, and then I can move on to working on my projects faster.
