Getting Involved

Social importance of the inclusion of others
-
I feel projects that engage others, whether 'others' refers to designers or any other category of people. A project that engages with people will stay in their mind for much longer as it is built from real memories and interacting with real people. With the sketchbooks I aim to run a day workshop even if its just with a few people where I can talk through the grids and see first hand how different people take different approaches to the same grids.

Another aspect from this project I can pick up on are the limitations the brief bought and how this can make often make the designs more successful.

The brief for the workshop was -
"The use of only only one typeface, the Graphik semibold by Christian Schwartz,
use only the colour black and they were only allowed to use photography for the booklet.
The results was a series of playful and radical posters which push the usage of the basics typeface rules, kerning, leading, rotation..."
