Everyone I know thinks the previous logo I designed for On This Day looked like sperm attacking an egg. So I changed it, and now it looks betters. So there.
For my Graphic Design A class, my professor had us start on rebranding a local museum for a brochure project we are going to be working on. I chose the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena to do my project on, pimarily because I have to go there anyways later this week to do a research project for an art history class.
Here are the 5 designs I quickly did in class.
Some things should be tweaked a bit, such as some kerning issues, spatial and contrast relationships. (I must admit, I spent a good amount of time in class obsessing over some photography lighting.)
We had also gotten back our first project, which was a color theory book cover design. The assignment was to research a well known color theory and theorist and take elements of the theory (diagrams, ideas) and come up with a design that illustrated the theory.
The particular color theorist I did the project on was Moses Harris. I’d go into more detail about his theory, but there is always google to help you with that. =) Besides, I have to finish replacing information on this book here at work.
