March 12th -18th

This week I experimented with layout and designs for the brochure pages.  At the moment with the idea I have for my brochure i'm not sure how to combine the layout and illustration I am planning on using.  I am also struggling with what to do for the extra brochure page as well as the map page.  In class we talked about grids again so we experimented with cutting out text and placing it on a grid to see what works and what does not for the visual layout.  I am a bit behind because of me putting so much time in illustrations that some seem to work with layout, I think i might have to change the image to fit on the page differently for the layout to work.  But the classes we had this week did really help with text/type/and font and its importance in graphic design.  I learnt so much about typography today and how difficult it actually is.

Here an example of an illustrations that i'm working on for one of the layouts
