Chapter 4 Response

2010-04-19T15:08:29Z

The chapter talked about how to use space and the how it can serve many functions. It discusses how white space can be a good way to create visual hierarchy. An interesting part of that is that white space is not always white, it can actually be any space that has no text or visual/graphic element. Without the use of white space and visual hierarchy our designs would be confusing and hard to understand. The use of white space in my booklet will be important because I would like to make sure the book is easy to read and visual pleasing. I think this is an extremely key point in design.

Chapter 2 & 3 Reading Responses!

The second chapter really focuses on the importance of the design process. For this particular project, I think looking at all the elements and paying closer attention to the detail, will make a major difference in my design as a whole. I specifically want to work on my measurements and how precise i am in terms of the grid system. By using a grid system for my farm booklet I will create a sense of unity and cohesion.
The third chapter talked about the grid system, which I have also discussed above, in terms of my design. I enjoyed learning about the many grid systems a designers can use, and how some are very "griddy" and other not grid like at all. All in all i thought that the readings did a good job going over the steps for the beginning design processes~
